What impact has the NWTF made in Wisconsin?

The NWTF has been a leading force for wildlife conservation and the preservation of our hunting heritage in Wisconsin. Every chapter banquet directly fuels that mission — funds raised through membership and ticket sales support habitat projects, hunter education, and conservation programs that keep our wild turkey populations thriving for generations to come. Your attendance makes all the difference.

Through strategic habitat management, prescribed fire programs, and land stewardship partnerships, the NWTF has positively impacted 12,213 acres across Wisconsin. These efforts directly improve nesting and brooding habitat for wild turkey populations, while supporting the broader ecosystem health that sustains hunters, wildlife, and future generations.

The NWTF's membership in Wisconsin represents a passionate community of hunters, conservationists, and outdoor enthusiasts united by a common mission. With 8,569 adult members and 685 JAKES members, each individual plays a vital role in funding habitat projects, advocating for hunting rights, and inspiring the next generation to carry the torch of conservation.

The Roots to Roost Initiative will help address range-wide declines in many plant and wildlife species, while managing concerns of water quality and forest health and resilience. The initiative will accomplish this by providing needed resources for education, outreach, research, political advocacy and by supporting active habitat management through strengthened conservation partnerships.

Other Notable Wisconsin Achievements

Achievement

Wisconsin DNR Wild Turkey Research Partnership

The state chapter partnered with the Wisconsin DNR on continuing wild turkey research efforts for the second consecutive year. This research uses GPS transmitters and wing tags to identify individual birds using the Snapshot Wisconsin Program to test the trail camera program in estimating poult-to-hen ratios and other recruitment metrics, as well as movements of individual birds.

Conservation

Dunnville Wildlife Area Habitat Restoration

The state chapter partnered with Wisconsin DNR to restore 1,100 acres of turkey habitat on Dunnville Wildlife Area in Dunn County, contributing to more than 12,000 impacted acres across the state in FY25.
