Western Wisconsin deer fare better when facing light snows but a foot of snow can hinder winter foraging for ground nibblers like wintergreen and dewberry. Northward deer rely on shrubs. farmers in farming counties report ample feed, while North Dakota faces severe depredation from heavy snow and cold.

Spooner keeps Northwest DNR district HQ as Hayward move dropped
The Department of Natural Resources scrapped plans to move the Northwest DNR District headquarters from Spooner to Hayward after the State Building Commission rejected over 565000 for the Hayward district building. The commission approved 276000 for a Hayward area office. Acting Gov. Martin Schreiber pledged to retain Spooner’s district headquarters. Mayor Tom Donovan and local officials had urged keeping both district and area offices in Spooner. The DNR may redraw Northwest and West Central district boundaries, with Polk and Barron counties under review.
