Wisconsin Bear Drawing - 01/26/24 06:04 PM
The 2024 Wisconsin bear drawing has been complete. You can log into your GoWild account and check if you drew.
I got my first tag for zone B with 13 points. Going to be a fun summer of baiting and watching cameras and hopefully a successful September!

Nice guys!-I heard they reduced tags by 10% and are contemplating splitting Zone A into two zones.

There were about 1,000 fewer tags for zone D this year, others stayed pretty much the same. Haven't heard anything about splitting up zone A. They just redid the boundaries over there a few years ago, likely to stay the same for some time to get a feel for how the change affected things before changing again.

Here I found it- yup not for consideration this year:
Lobner said the DNR would consider splitting Zone A, which has a disparity in habitat and bear numbers, likely in coming years as part of an update to the bear management plan.
