MADISON, Wis. (WFRV) – Earlier last week, the Wisconsin DNR released both the hunting regulations (for the Fall 2026-Spring 2027 season) and the 2026 fall forecast series.
The two provided resources contain the majority of information that hunters need to participate in hunting game species. The fall forecasts also include hunting and trapping prospects for a variety of popular game species.https://mmamp.wearegreenbay.com/avi/?key=hio2idfa#amp=1Shawano County Humane Society spotlights $5,000 donor to “Sunny’s” medical care
An online version of the hunting regulations was a new release for this year. This version includes a drop-down filter that helps hunters navigate to the info they need at a faster rate.
The online version mirrors the physical, so hunters familiar with the original print version should find the online version easy to transition to. The print version is expected to be available at DNR Service Centers in the coming weeks.
The fall forecasts outline what hunters and trappers across Wisconsin can anticipate while pursuing their game species of choice. In addition to information about particular species, they also include useful reminders about public land access opportunities, game registration requirements, and season dates.https://8543b0c730aaefb3cc49786802e927f1.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-45/html/container.html?n=0
Although the forecasts are merely a prediction tool, they are based on a thorough analysis of available species data. Data sources include federal and local species surveys, findings of DNR research projects, weather patterns, and on-the-ground information the DNR receives from advisory committees and staff.https://cdn.amspbs.com/load-cookie.html?source=amp&bidders=appnexus%2Crubicon%2Cpubmatic%2Cix%2Cttd%2Copenx%2Cmedianet%2Cnativo%2Ckueezrtb%2Ctriplelift%2Cminutemedia%2Csharethrough%2Ctaboola&args=account%3A3#amp=1OWI at 6:00 a.m.: Wisconsin Police show impaired driving can happen at any time
