2015-2025 Beaver Management Plan Approved!
The Natural Resources Board approved the Beaver Management Plan at their October 28th meeting in Madison! After many meetings, webinars, more meetings, surveys and even more meetings, the Beaver Task Force assisted the Department with creating a solid, balanced management plan for the future. The Beaver Task Force is comprised of 24 different resource management agencies, DNR programs, organizations and tribes.
The new beaver management plan identifies six main issues or goals, followed by information on beaver biology, ecological impacts, economic considerations, history, population status, habitat management and damage management. This 70-page document can be found at dnr.wi.gov by searching keyword “beaver management plan”.
