We encourage you to take the time to fill out the survey—many of the questions impact ecosystems and wildlife both locally and throughout the state.

Time to log on to the Conservation Congress Spring Hearing

The Wisconsin Conservation Congress is taking public input between 7pm on April 11 through 7pm on April 14 (Central Time).

I just followed my own advice and completed the vote (or survey, as the DNR and Conservation Congress prefer to call it). I plowed through every question including all the ones submitted in Dane County. Some of these are important issues and Madison Audubon has provided some voting recommendations below. I hope they're helpful but please vote regardless of whether you agree with all of them.
