When we think the Trump administration canâ€™t stoop any lower, news reaches us of the most barbaric of lows.

The Trump administration is proposing the reversal of 2015 legislation that bans aggressive predator control tactics in national preserves in Alaska. This would amend current National Park Service regulations to allow for controversial sport hunting and trapping techniques on roughly 20 million acres of federal lands in Alaska. Methods of this type of hunting include baiting brown bears with donuts and bacon, using spotlights to shoot mother bears and their cubs hibernating in dens, killing wolves, coyotes, and their pups in their dens, and using motorboats to shoot swimming caribou.
