Holiday Hunt for Select Farmland Zone Units Begins Dec. 24
Hunters can look forward to additional deer hunting opportunities during late archery and crossbow seasons, as well as the antlerless-only “holiday hunt” in select deer management units. The antlerless-only holiday hunt will be offered in 17 Farmland Zone units, including farmland units in Adams and Sauk County, from December 24 through January 1. The holiday hunt is offered in these units based on recommendations from County Deer Advisory Councils where added opportunity to harvest antlerless deer is offered to help reach antlerless harvest goals and the county deer population objective. Hunters may fill any unused antlerless tags in the designated deer management zone, unit and land type printed on each tag. Only antlerless deer may be harvested in holiday hunt units with any legal firearm, crossbow or archery equipment. Units where the holiday hunt is not offered are open for archery and crossbow hunting. Bucks may be harvested only in non-Holiday Hunt units. Successful hunters are reminded to register their deer by 5 p.m. on the day after harvest. Registration can be completed online by searching “GameReg” on the DNR web page or calling 1-844-426-3734. For more information on units offering the holiday hunt, check out the interactive deer map at keyword “DMU.”
Chronic wasting disease sampling
CWD sampling is being offered at various locations throughout southern, central and northern Wisconsin including both in-person service as well as self-service options. Self-service kiosks are 24/7 options for hunters to drop off a deer head to be tested for CWD. The online registration database now includes within the station type option drop down menu the specification of self-service kiosks in available counties.
