The bill (SB620) that proposes to legalize a Sandhill Crane hunt in Wisconsin was not moved forward for consideration in this legislative session. It has not gone away, but will be held for a future session, perhaps in January.

To those of you who contacted your legislators asking them to vote NO on this issue, THANK YOU! Your support is incredible and makes a difference.

With the current status of the bill, we ask that you pause any pending advocacy efforts for the time being. We will monitor this situation very closely and promptly let you know when to once again ramp up your communication with your elected officials.

Together, we can make a big difference for cranes in Wisconsin! Thank you for your passion and coordinated efforts.
