Goose plan shot down in Wisconsin goose tag zone fight
Wisconsin Conservation Congress rejected a proposal to expand the goose tagging zone and set an 18 000 bird quota, while endorsing the duck season plan. The DNR sought a 25 000 goose quota, but federal limits capped it at 15 000 with no zone expansion. The issue, tied to six counties and Theresa Marsh, heads to the DNR board on August 24 in Ashland.
