MADISON – The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources today announced that the fall issue of Wisconsin Natural Resources magazine is now available, packed with interesting stories and helpful information to make the most of autumn in Wisconsin.
The cover story highlights Milwaukee’s Havenwoods State Forest, Wisconsin’s only urban state forest. This beautiful gem includes 237 sprawling acres and 8 miles of trails, offering a serene escape from fast-paced city life.
Readers also will learn about the importance of deer hunting, which plays a key role in conservation efforts in the state. Plus, find out about the science behind fall colors and meet a group that embraces the fun and challenges of traditional archery. Other stories touch on the importance of the state’s forest products industry and celebrate Wisconsin’s Scenic Byways, which offer opportunities for beautiful fall color drives around the state.
The new issue also shines a spotlight on the ecological landscapes of Wisconsin. There are 16 of them and they vary widely, depending on where you look. Other stories offer insights on the DNR’s work involving brook trout, black bears, PFAS mitigation and more.
