Hunting in Wisconsin
Memories are Made in the Tree Stand
Here, hunting season is more than your next prized bag. It’s the annual trip Up North with your closest crew. It’s the feeling of waiting in your tree stand when the woods are quiet and calm. It’s the tradition of long drives, warm meals and hard work, all set in nature’s backdrop. From tracking pheasant with your pup to scoping out your next 8-point buck, the hunt is just part of the adventure.
Wisconsin Hunting Resources
Hunting is a deep-rooted tradition in Wisconsin, with seasons for everything from White-tailed Deer and turkey to bear and various small game. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) serves as the essential central hub for all hunter needs through its Go Wild system, including purchasing licenses, permits and harvest authorizations, as well as to review the up-to-date combined hunting regulations. By utilizing the Where to Hunt public access map and mandatory electronic harvest reporting, hunters ensure compliance, promote wildlife management and contribute to the safe continuation of the state's rich outdoor heritage.
