The state of Wisconsin offers an absolute plethora of opportunities for the outdoorsman. From hiking to fishing to hunting all sorts of critters, the options are vast! But did you know you can hunt elk in Wisconsin? Every year, a lucky few are fortunate enough to draw tags for Wisconsin’s small but growing elk herd, offering a rare opportunity to hunt these animals east of the Mississippi River for Wisconsin residents. But how did they get here? And what’s next for the herd?

In this episode of the Wisconsin Sportsman podcast, Josh talks with Joshua Spiegel, Jennifer Price Tack, Christine Anhalt-Depies of the Wisconsin DNR about Wisconsin’s elk herd. These three work to help research and manage Wisconsin’s elk herd. If you love conservation, Wisconsin, and elk, this episode is for you. Enjoy!
