Cougar in Wisconsin
After all the years the WDNR has declared that Wisconsin does not have a Cougar population they are now going in a different direction. I have copied and pasted below an announcement that our DNR has made public. I could not copy the link to forward to all of you, and you will need to search hard on their web site - but it is there, along with a flyer for the seminars. Email me if you can't find the page and I will forward it to you. Here is the announcement:
Wildlife Management will host a Cougar training program by Dr. James Halfpenny titled the: Cougar Tracking, Ecology, and Behavior Workshop at the Crex Meadows Center, Grantsburg, WI on December 2 - 3, 2009. Dr. Halfpenny will be instructing a focused training relative to cougar management, but the workshop is available to members of the general public with a genuine interest in cougar ecology.
The workshop fee is $115. This includes registration, afternoon luncheon each day and workshop materials. Payment must be received in full before confirmation of registration is made.
This two-day workshop will begin at 9:00 a.m. on December 2 and end at 4:00 p.m. on December 3. A complete agenda will be sent after payment is received. Registration is limited to 40 people and is on a first-come, first-served basis.
Recommended lodging is at the Lodge on Crooked Lake in Siren, twelve miles east, phone: (715) 349-2500, with a block of rooms reserved at the rate of $65.00 single or double occupancy. When making a reservation refer to the “DNR Cougar Workshop” for these reduced rates.
Registration must be received by November 30, 2009. Payment can be made by sending a check along with completed form to: WI Department of Natural Resources, ATTN: Shawn Rossler, P.O. BOX 7921, Madison, WI 53707-7921.
If interested please contact Shawn Rossler, Assistant Furbearer Specialist (608)261-6452 or by e-mail shawn.rossler@wisconsin.gov[/email].
