Published: , in Outdoor News
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources’ plan to euthanize nuisance geese is on pause following backlash from the public and lawmakers.
“One of the Wildlife Division’s objectives is to develop, recommend, and implement policies and regulations to manage wildlife and human-wildlife interactions,” DNR Director Scott Bowen wrote in a May 9 letter to Sen Dayna Polehanki, D-Livonia. “We have been working with the public to resolve human-goose conflicts for over 40 years, and our attempt to implement this pilot program was an additional effort to further that goal.”
