MADISON — The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and County Deer Advisory Councils are seeking public feedback on Wisconsin's deer management, including harvest quotas, management zones and more ahead of the 2025 deer season.

Submit Feedback Online

The DNR encourages input from anyone interested in helping shape local deer herd management preferences during the online input period. This feedback will be considered by the local County Deer Advisory Councils as they develop their recommendations for the DNR.

The survey link will be available on the County Deer Advisory Council webpage once the input period opens on April 5 and will remain open through April 13.

Participate In Person

The public is also encouraged to attend their local County Deer Advisory Council meeting to join the discussion about local deer management and provide input on deer season details. Meetings include a review and discussion of current county data on harvest trends, herd health, the deer hunter experience and deer/human conflict issues like crop and property damage.
