Every Minnesota hunter has heard the barred owl’s distinctive “who cooks for you!?” call. This week’s Beyond Minnesota section details a federal plan to kill barred owls in an attempt to save endangered spotted owls in the Pacific Northwest.
More aggressive and adaptable than spotted owls, barreds compete for the same food sources and habitats, thereby displacing their already imperiled West Coast cousins.
To save the imperiled spotted owl from potential extinction, U.S. wildlife officials are embracing a contentious plan to deploy trained shooters into dense West Coast forests to kill almost a half-million barred owls that are crowding out their cousins.

So, when a school of goldfish appeared in a pond just a few hundred yards from Lake George in New York last year, the organizations that watch out for the lake were concerned. They set out to eradicate the fish from the pond, but unfortunately it turned out to be easier said than done to eliminate them all.

Wisconsin set a tragic record in 2023 when 28 people died while enjoying the state’s lakes and rivers by fishing, hunting, paddling, jet-skiing, waterskiing or motorboating.
Most of those folks drowned. Only one died in a collision. The record toll marked the 12th year since 2005 that Wisconsin recorded 20 or more boating-related deaths. The previous one-year record was 25 fatalities in 2017 and 2021.
