Deer Management Deadline March 1

Landowners, hunters and land managers interested in improving wildlife habitat on land they own or hunt are encouraged to sign up for Wisconsin’s Deer Management Assistance Program before the March 1 application deadline. DMAP engages landowners and hunters to balance wildlife and habitat needs on a given property. Landowners can designate anyone as a representative for their property to allow friends or family that may not own land themselves to take the lead on habitat management. Applications are accepted at any time for automatic access to Level 1 benefits, including an online library of habitat and deer management resources, communication with local DNR staff, annual DMAP reports, volunteer opportunities and invitations to regional DMAP workshops. To apply or learn more about DMAP, search the Department of Natural Resources website, dnr.wi.gov, for keyword “DMAP.”
