Deer management unit information meetings set
MADISON – Hunters and others and will have a chance to get the most up
to date
deer management unit information, preliminary deer population
estimates and find out what the 2008 deer hunting season structure may
look like in a series of public meetings across the state. Local wildlife
biologists will be on hand at each meeting to provide information and
answer questions.
“These meetings are intended to inform hunters and the public about
Wisconsin deer management, and how it is applied in the local management
units where they hunt, live or recreate,” said Keith Warnke, big game
ecologist for the Department of Natural Resources. “Many of these meetings
will have formal presentations by local DNR wildlife biologists, followed
by a question and answer period. Others will use an open house style
format allowing folks to stop in anytime over a two hour period.”
Other topics attendees can expect to learn more about include: CWD;
October antlerless-only gun hunting opportunities; local buck and
antlerless harvest histories; the Sex- Age- Kill (SAK) deer population
estimation process; and deer population estimates, distribution and
abundance.
Additional information about
white-tailed deer management in Wisconsin is available on the
Department of Natural Resources Web site.
