Wisconsin’s 2025 deer season structure ready for the Natural Resources Board

Aspects of the 2025 deer season framework will go before the Wisconsin Natural Resources Board (NRB) during its Wednesday, June 25, meeting at the University of Wisconsin–Parkside in Kenosha.
The board will meet in-person that day beginning at 8:30 a.m. at the student center. The public may watch the meeting on YouTube. Jeff Pritzl, the DNR’s deer program specialist, will bring to the board antlerless quota and tag number recommendations from the county deer advisory councils (CDAC) that includes any suggested quota and permit changes from the DNR.

In all seasons combined, about 373,000 deer were bagged in Michigan, according to preliminary data reported by the DNR’s Brian Frawley to the Natural Resources Commission, which oversees DNR policies and programs. That was a 7.6% increase over 2023, Frawley said.

Stocked salmon from federal fish hatchery provide New York anglers with rare opportunity in Schroon River

The Schroon River, a tributary of the Hudson River in the southern Adirondacks, has long offered solid trout fishing, with the occasional landlocked Atlantic salmon appearing in the river from Schroon Lake.
In early May this year though, the Schroon River began yielding big salmon after big salmon, numerous fish approaching 8 pounds, drawing anglers from around the Northeast for what had become an unusual fishing opportunity. That opportunity came courtesy of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service fish hatcheries in Vermont.

Long hidden and rare, remnant prairie re-emerges after Iowa project removes unwanted invasives

Some of Iowa’s lesser known native prairie plants have returned to the hills overlooking Rock Creek Lake this spring, after a project last November knocked back invasive plant species such as honeysuckle and autumn olive that had thickly spread onto the area.
Standing on this patch of newly returning remnant prairie, wildlife biologist Todd Gosselink pointed out native flowers that were just waiting in the soil for the opportunity to reappear.
