1 BERING LAND BRIDGE NATIONAL PRESERVE Purposes, Natural & Cultural Resources, and Facilities Bud Rice, Environmental Protection Specialist, NPS Alaska Region Bering Land Bridge National Preserve is a subset of Beringia, a former massive land bridge between Asia and North America during ice ages. 1
2 BERING LAND BRIDGE NATIONAL PRESERVE (BELA) was established for the following purposes and values: SEC The following areas are hereby established as units of the National Park System and shall be administered by the Secretary under the laws governing the administration of such lands and under the provisions of this Act: (2) Bering Land Bridge National Preserve, containing approximately two million four hundred and fifty-seven thousand acres of public land, as generally depicted on map numbered BELA-90,005, and dated October The preserve shall be managed for the following purposes, among others: To protect and interpret examples of arctic plant communities, volcanic lava flows, ash explosions, coastal formations, and other geologic processes; to protect habitat for internationally significant populations of migratory birds; to provide for archeological and paleontological study, in cooperation with Native Alaskans, of the process of plant and animal migration, including man, between North America and the Asian Continent; to protect habitat for, and populations of, fish and wildlife including, but not limited to, marine mammals, brown/grizzly bears, moose, and wolves; subject to such reasonable regulations as the Secretary may prescribe, to continue reindeer grazing use, including necessary facilities and equipment, within the areas which on January 1, 1976, were subject to reindeer grazing permits, in accordance with sound range management practices; to protect the viability of subsistence resources; and in a manner consistent with the foregoing, to provide for outdoor recreation and environmental education activities including public access for recreational purposes to the Serpentine Hot Springs area. The Secretary shall permit the continuation of customary patterns and modes of travel during periods of adequate snow cover within a one-hundred-foot right-of-way along either side of an existing route from Deering to the Taylor Highway, subject to such reasonable regulations as the Secretary may promulgate to assure that such travel is consistent with the foregoing purposes.

15 Bearded Seals are an Ice Dependent Seal that Uses Coastal areas near BELA Bearded seals have been tagged and tracked in a study with ADFG, NOAA, and local Native tribes. Note the use of these seals in the Bering Straits area during the month of October. As winter progresses many seals migrate south into the Bering Sea, only to return again in spring. Bearded seal or ugruk is a large ice-dependent seal. Because their sea ice habitat is retreating more and more during recent summers, this species is being considered for threatened status. Data from these slides on seals are from: Ringed Seals also Rely on Sea Ice near BELA and Beyond Ringed seals have also been captured and tagged with transmitters. This seal species is much smaller than the bearded seal, but it is extremely important to polar bears and indigenous hunters in the Bering Straits area. These seals haul out and rear young on sea ice, but loss of ice habitat, particularly multi-year ice, could cause reductions in reproduction and their population. Movement of male ringed seals in fall 2008, show a heavy reliance on areas in and near the Bering Straits. Similar maps track the movements of female ribbon seals. Data from these slides on seals are from: 15
16 Comparison of Bearded and Ringed Seal Use of Area Habitat Both species are heavily dependent on sea ice for their life cycle and may be listed as threatened species in the future. They are important prey species for polar bear and subsistence hunters. Bearded seals were tagged and tracked in the Bering Straits area in October 2009 Ringed seals were tagged and tracked during the same period in October 2009 Subsistence Harvest of Marine and other Foods are Important to Seward Peninsula People Drying seal meat on a drying rack in the region.
