»» Hunters are no longer required to validate or attach paper carcass tags to a deer or turkey harvest, and are no longer required to keep the tag with the
meat following registration. Instead, hunters will carry hard copy or electronic deer tags and turkey harvest authorizations, and will use the unique tag
number or harvest authorization number to begin the registration process.
»» Upon successfully registering, the hunter will receive a 10-character confirmation number that should be retained for the hunter’s records and will be
required if the game is taken to a taxidermist or meat processor. The confirmation number indicates to a conservation warden, wildlife biologist or meat
processor that the animal has been properly registered.
»» All deer and turkey must be registered by 5 p.m. the day after recovery.
»» Although all registration is electronic, the department may require tissue sampling. CWD sampling continues in Wisconsin and hunters may be asked to
submit tissue samples from deer. The department may require in-person registration.
