Wisconsin Wildlife Federation: No tribal take leaves wolf population unmanaged

Featured, Hunting, National Hunting, National News, News, Wisconsin / By

Wisconsin Wildlife Federation (WWF) board members reviewed the DNR’s proposed permanent wolf rules and filed multiple objections with the DNR, saying the group “opposes (the plan) as written and strongly urges the DNR to make the following changes.”
Late in its letter, the WWF points out that Federal Judge Barabara Crabb said the DNR may make adjustments to quotas if the state’s six Chippewa tribes do not participate in a harvest season and leave their 50% of the quota untouched.

When they told me that my pup, Liza, would slow down a bit after having pups last spring, I believed them. They, of course, were wrong.
I think she found a new, higher gear.

• First, most conservationists and environmentalists will agree that climate change is a threat to fish, wildlife, and habitat.
• Second, most conservationists and environmentalists will agree that invasive species are a problem for fish, wildlife, and habitat (albeit not as existential as extreme heat, drought, severe storms, or ocean/lake/reservoir/river and stream warming).
Perhaps under-appreciated is that invasive species are, in large measure, a biotic manifestation of the changing precipitation and warming.

National Wildlife Refuge in Ohio names marsh in honor of John Gradel

Featured, Nature Page & Night Sky, News, Ohio / By

In a poignant ceremony led by Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge Manager Jason Lewis, a sign was unveiled along one of the wetland cells in the Cedar Point National Wildlife Refuge.
As three generations of the family looked on, this 155-acre marsh unit that borders some Gradel Farms property was officially named the John Gradel Marsh. This dedication was a formal way of recognizing the long partnership of John Gradel, Sr., who passed away in April, and the Gradel family for their contributions to restoring, protecting, and enhancing this coastal wetland.
