WTH??? Sand hill cranes are gonna be hunted in Wisconsin is repubs get a say.......😡 😡 😡 [View all]

Republican lawmakers are introducing a package of bills that would open sandhill crane hunting in Wisconsin and allow residents to carry concealed firearms without licenses.

The package of 13 draft bills, dubbed the Wisconsin Sporting Freedom Package, was released Wednesday in conjunction with Hunter Nation, a Kansas-based hunting group, which is also suing the state over the ability to hunt wolves.

The bills range in topics from adding more pheasants and brook trout, to simplifying turkey hunting seasons, to reducing Department of Natural Resources regulations.

Republican Sen. Rob Stafsholt of New Richmond, chairman of the Senate Sporting Heritage, Small Business and Rural Issues committee, said the bills are aimed at policies Gov. Tony Evers and the DNR haven't listened to from outdoorsmen and women.
