VOTE YOUR OPINION

In the April 20 issue of Wisconsin Outdoor News, editor Dean Bortz writes:
Madison — Whether the discovery of CWD in Washburn County results in higher antlerless quotas this fall remains to be seen, but DNR officials on April 4 said they were well aware that deer units in that area already are close to goals.
“I know there is concern in that part of state already with the number of permits and the antlerless quota levels,” said Kurt Thiede, DNR Lands Division administrator. “Those units were close to goal, and we will take that into consideration when reviewing quotas.
The DNR will present this year’s antlerless goals and permit numbers to the Natural Resources Board on April 25, but as of April 12, the agency was leaning toward leaving quota and permit levels where they were before learning of the CWD-positive doe, according to Dave Zebro, the DNR Northern Region warden supervisor.

Meetings offer opportunity to be active participant in wild turkey management The question we want to know is WHAT do YOU think of this. Let us know. Take the POLL! VOTE YOUR OPINION MADISON – State wildlife officials say that the time has come to revise the Wisconsin Wild Turkey Management Plan and they are urging hunters to consider attending one of 11 public input meetings in April and May. Since wild turkeys were re-introduced into Wisconsin in the 1970s, their population has flourished, according to Scott Walter, upland wildlife ecologist for the Department of Natural Resources. “Turkeys can now be found throughout the state, and feedback from hunters, landowners, and others has prompted us to take a fresh look at the statewide Wild Turkey Management Plan, last revised in 1996,” Walter said. “The chance to hear the ideas, concerns, and opinions of the public will be crucial to this process.” The public input meetings are intended to both share information on wild turkey management and gather information from hunters, landowners, and others about the turkey population where they live, hunt, or farm. Meetings should last no longer than two hours, and are open to the public – no registration required. Meeting attendees will be able to view a presentation giving the historical background of the existing Wild Turkey Management Plan and explaining current revision efforts. There will be opportunities during the presentation for attendees to ask questions and discuss turkey management issues. “Anyone interested in the opportunity to discuss local turkey management issues, hunting seasons, and any other wild turkey topic is encouraged to attend,” Walter said. Attendees also will be able to fill out a survey in person. Anyone who is unable to attend a meeting can view the same presentation and fill out the same survey online at their convenience starting on April 19. To learn more about participating in this effort go to dnr.wi.us and search for “turkey meetings.” READ MORE HERE: For more information contact: Scott Walter - (608) 267-7861 Krista McGinley - (608) 261-8458
