The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has released its 2025 fall forecast series, which outlines the hunting and trapping outlook for various popular game species in the state. The forecasts aim to inform hunters and trappers about what they can expect while pursuing their favorite game.
These forecasts include details on specific game species, as well as reminders regarding public land access opportunities, game registration requirements, and season dates. Although these predictions are intended to provide guidance for the upcoming hunting and trapping seasons, they are based on a comprehensive analysis of available data sources. These sources comprise federal and local species surveys, findings from DNR research projects, weather patterns, and information from advisory committees and staff.
Hunters and trappers can access the fall forecasts for several species of interest:
– 2025 Fall Deer Hunting Forecast
