Wisconsin Duck Shortage Contrasts Geese Abound This Season

Wisconsin's 1985 waterfowl season shows plentiful geese and scarce ducks. DNR biologist John Wetzel cites cold early weather and migration patterns, with as many as 60,000 geese counted at Grand Marsh and up to 300,000 statewide, while diving ducks lag due to late arrivals and high Mississippi River water levels reducing duck harvest potential.
