Firewood Facts

With Camping Season in full swing in Wisconsin, here's a reminder about Wisconsin's Firewood regulations.

Most importantly, firewood cannot be brought to Wisconsin from another state. This could violate federal law and have fines up to $1000.

If you are camping at any state property, the wood must come from within 25 miles of that property, and it cannot come from a quaranteed area.

Many private campgrounds also have restrictions on firewood, so be sure to check in advance if you plan to bring firewood with you.

You can also purchase firewood from a Wisconsin Certified Dealer - this wood has been treated for pests and diseases and is allowed on state properties and most campgrounds.  Keep your receipt to show as proof when you head out.

Grey Wolf Hunting Rules, Quotas Proposed

The Federal Government has delisted the Grey Wolf from the Endangered Species List for the Great Lakes Region. Now Wisconsin is preparing guidelines for future hunting seasons and has information sessions planned across the State.  Article from the Wisconsin DNR

MADISON -- Earlier this year the federal government delisted the gray wolf from the endangered species list for the Western Great Lakes Region. This spring, Act 169 was passed by the Wisconsin Legislature and signed by the governor, directing the Department of Natural Resources to develop a wolf hunting and trapping season rule, harvest management zones, harvest quotas, and hunter and trapper permit levels.

“The department is committed to conservation of wolves in Wisconsin. Long-term conservation includes managing this important wildlife population within our borders,” said DNR Secretary Cathy Stepp.
