Friday on Alaska News Nightly:

The Alaska State House is going into the start of the legislative session with no clear majority coalition. Kodiak’s tanner crab fishery is at risk over disagreements on the price. Plus eager beavers are moving North in Alaska, and the impacts can be seen from space.

Reports tonight from:

Kavitha George and Hannah Bissett in Anchorage
Anna Canny and Katie Anastas in Juneau
Kirsten Dobroth and Brian Venua in Kodiak
Dan Bross and Robyne in Fairbanks
and Sabine Poux in Kenai
