DNR weighs emergency deer feeding for far northern Wisconsin
Wisconsin DNR wildlife managers in the Northwest District consider emergency deer feeding in the Brule area due to unprecedented early winter snow depths and subzero temperatures. They warn of possible massive deer losses if conditions persist, noting that yarding and access to woody browse may become critical and that feeding debates hinge on timing, methods, and cross state input.

Wisconsin proposes nongame wildlife tax checkoff on 1984 forms
Ron Nicotera of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources promotes a new nongame wildlife checkoff on 1984 state tax forms. Taxpayers can donate to fund endangered species and nongame programs, potentially raising as much as $500,000 in the first year. The move aligns Wisconsin with Minnesota, Michigan, Iowa, Illinois, and 25 other states, expanding support for bald eagles, pine martens, loons, peregrine falcons, eastern gray wolves, and endangered plants. The program aims to expand surveys, habitat protection, and public information, while balancing a tight budget and small staff.
