The DNR’s fall forecasts outline expectations and reminders for hunters and trappers for the upcoming seasons.
MADISON, Wis. – The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) today released the 2024 fall forecast series, detailing the hunting outlook for a variety of popular game species.
These forecasts outline what hunters and trappers across the state can expect while pursuing their favorite game species. In addition to information about specific game species, they also include helpful reminders about public land access opportunities, game registration requirements and season dates.
“The species forecasts are the result of a thorough analysis of federal and local species surveys, the findings of DNR research projects, weather patterns and the on-the-ground information we receive from our advisory committees and staff,” said Shawn Rossler, DNR furbearer specialist. “They are based on both science and the observations of DNR professionals and experienced outdoorspeople from across our state.”
