This is my question as well.
My guess:
Laws regarding proper disposal of human remains are state, not federal.
Alaska, being as how many parts are far from neat, tidy facilities, has no such laws - requiring people to dig a hole in Arctic ice is really a dumb idea, so there are no state laws.
Notice the toe was black (not negroid, black) - that was frostbitten in all probability.
Such things are probably readily available in Dawson AK.
It’s Canada not Alaska
And if anyone is interested I found the Sourtoe Cocktail Club: A history of the toes used for the aforementioned drink

And after reading that I admit being wrong about how most of the toes came to be amputated. Seems it is a variety of reasons, not just frostbite

Surely eating a lil piggie isn’t kosher, right?

You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don’t wanna know about it, believe me.
Nah, getting a replacement is easy. Call for a toe truck.

And this little piggy went to the bar…
