Laws in Alaska sometimes cross the line between completely obvious and awkwardly confusing. But hey, we’re just here to write the story because there is no way in the world that we could even attempt to digest the meaning behind some of these laws. From feeding alcohol to moose, carrying slingshots around town and waking bears up to take selfies – these laws are so “Only in Alaska!” If none of them surprise you, then you’re definitely more of a sourdough than us!
And if you do, you will probably be ran out of the state... SEE YA! There is a special place in the lower 48 for people who don't respect wildlife.
And if you ever try this idiotic act, we have a feeling that you'll loose a lot more than just some money paying off a fine. Like say maybe, your life? We'd say the risk is definitely not worth the reward of a sweet selfie.

Sorry kids, slingshots are for adults. With concealed carry permits only. Hate to be the Grinch that stole Christmas but you know, a law is a law. Who makes up these things?

Hate to cramp your style, but grab your pillow and toothbrush and exit through the any door or window. BEFORE the wheels on the bus go round and round.
If the animal is cross tethered or in a secure cage, then you should be good. But the law is in place to keep your animal from being objected or thrown from the vehicle. Keep the pooches safe, y'all!
