DNR Seeking Public Comment On Future Wildlife Management Objectives

MADISON, Wis. – The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is currently drafting a strategic plan for managing our state’s wildlife species and habitat and is seeking public feedback on the plan’s objectives.
This strategic plan will guide how the DNR’s Wildlife Program prioritizes its resources and work in the coming years. The DNR values public input and believes that it is important for Wisconsinites to weigh in on the draft plan’s objectives and share which are the most important to them.
For more information on the strategic planning process and to participate in this public input opportunity, visit our Wildlife Management Strategic Plan Updates webpage. The webpage explains the planning process, contains a link to the input form and allows individuals to stay engaged in the planning process by signing up to receive occasional updates. We anticipate the input form will take about 10 minutes to complete. Participation is voluntary, and all responses are anonymous. For input to be considered, submissions must be completed by Friday, Feb. 28, 2025.
The public is also encouraged to sign up for periodic email updates on the DNR’s strategic planning process.
If you have any questions about this process or the input form, contact DNRWildlifeSwitchboard@wisconsin.gov.
