MADISON (WKOW) – Wisconsin wildlife officials are looking for information on any collared and tagged deer that hunters kill this fall.

The state Department of Natural Resources put radio collars on more than 240 deer and ear tags on another 200 animals in Rusk, Sawyer, Shawano, Waupaca, Price and Outagamie counties as part of a deer mortality study,

The deer are fair game in this fall's archer and gun seasons, but DNR officials are asking hunters who kill one to call the agency.

The DNR would like to know the deer's tag or collar number, the circumstances and location of the kill, and the hunter's phone number.
