Video Of A St. Croix River Swan With Lead Poisoning Is A Call To Action

Speak up for swans at the Wisconsin Conservation Congress Spring Hearings

The topics of lead tackle and ammunition are on the agenda for Wisconsin's annual statewide Conservation Congress spring meetings. The meetings will take place in all 72 counties of the state on Monday, April 11, 2016, at 7:00 p.m. Each year, the events offer a chance for citizens to provide input on proposed changes to fish and wildlife regulations, elect Conservation Congress delegates, and introduce citizen resolutions.

The public input guides recommendations the Conservation Congress makes to the Natural Resources Board, based on voting results at the county meetings. The public is asked to vote on a number of questions.

Two of this year's questions have direct connections to lead poisoning in wildlife:

    #22 - Require non-toxic shot on all DNR-managed lands;
    #23 - Require non-toxic fishing tackle under 0.5 oz in weight.
