Black, minority Trump supporters censored by Gannett, other media at 2020 RNC Convention. Expect the same as Milwaukee hosts 2024 RNC Convention. Look back four years Wisconsin, to compare and contrast Gannett’s corrupt coverage of the 2020 Republican and Democratic National Conventions to know what to expect July 15-18 when the nation’s eyes rest on Milwaukee, home of the 2024 RNC convention.  The DNC will showcase its conventi...

Emergency rule regarding deer carcass transportation suspended following Oct. 1 Joint Committee for Review of Administrative Rules meeting

MADISON - The Joint Committee for Review of Administrative Rules voted to
suspend portions of an emergency rule that would have restricted deer
carcass transportation in CWD-affected counties at its Oct. 1 meeting.

As a result, carcass transport regulation changes included in the original
emergency rule, approved by the Natural Resources Board at its Aug. 8
meeting, are not in effect as previously announced. The 2018 deer hunting
regulations<https://dnr.wi.gov/files/PDF/pubs/wm/WM0431.pdf> and deer
carcass movement restrictions
webpage<https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/wildlifehabitat/carcassmovement.html> have
been updated to reflect this change and revert back to 2017 carcass
transportation rules.

It is important to note that it remains illegal to transport whole wild deer
carcasses and certain parts of those carcasses from CWD-affected
counties<https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/wildlifehabitat/documents/cwdaffectedcount
iesdifferences.pdf
> to areas outside of CWD-affected counties, unless these
deer carcasses or parts are being transported to an adjacent county or to a
licensed taxidermist or licensed meat processor within 72 hours of the deer
being registered. This restriction applies to all CWD-affected counties,
including those where a baiting and feeding ban is no longer in effect.

Proper disposal of deer carcass waste is an effective preventative measure
to reduce risk of disease transmission. While the emergency rule has been
suspended, Department of Natural Resources staff continue to encourage
hunters who harvest a deer in a CWD-affected county to voluntarily keep that
deer carcass in the county of harvest or limit movement to an adjacent
CWD-affected county, unless the hunter transports the carcass to a licensed
taxidermist, meat processor, or landfill through regular waste disposal
systems such as curbside pick-up.

The following links provide additional information:

sites<https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/hunt/landfillmap.html>; and
  *   recommendations for stopping the spread of
CWD<https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/WildlifeHabitat/documents/CWD_Info_Brochure2017
.pdf
>.

Deer hunters play a key role in preventing the spread of CWD in Wisconsin,
and DNR staff encourage hunters to have harvested deer tested for CWD and to
adhere to baiting and feeding bans<https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/hunt/bait.html>.
