Wisconsin Sets Emergency Waterfowl Season Amid FWS Quota Clash
The Wisconsin Natural Resources Board issued an emergency order establishing the 1982 waterfowl season after clashing with federal officials over a goose quota. The board protested lowering the quota to 18,000 geese and urged Congress to seek reconsideration. The plan preserves 1981 framework for ducks, includes a 50 day goose season, and reserves a 16 day scaup season with zones Horicon and Central outlining specific dates and random permits.

Wisconsin eagle shot by Missouri men faces fines and license revocation
Melvin Schneier and Ronald Stearns of Perryville Missouri were fined 1000 each and received one year suspended jail terms for shooting a bald eagle along the Mississippi in Missouri last February. The two men also lost hunting and fishing license privileges for three years for killing a tagged two year old eaglet from Wisconsin. The DNR says such eagles often winter south of Wisconsin, and tend to return to their birthplace.
