  • Wisconsin's Wildlife Action Plan (2005-2015)
    Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan (2005-2015) IMPLEMENTATION: Priority Conservation Actions & Conservation Opportunity Areas Prepared by: Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources with Assistance from Conservation Partners, June 30th, 2008 06/19/2008 page 2 of 93 Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan (2005-2015) IMPLEMENTATION: Priority Conservation Actions & Conservation Opportunity Areas Acknowledgments Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan is a roadmap of conservation actions needed to ensure our wildlife and natural communities will be with us in the future. The original plan provides an immense volume of data useful to help guide conservation decisions. All of the individuals acknowledged for their work compiling the plan have a continuous appreciation from the state of Wisconsin for their commitment to SGCN. Implementing the conservation actions is a priority for the state of Wisconsin. To put forward a strategy for implementation, there was a need to develop a process for priority decision-making, narrowing the list of actions to a more manageable number, and identifying opportunity areas to best apply conservation actions. A subset of the Department’s ecologists and conservation scientists were assigned the task of developing the implementation strategy. Their dedicated commitment and tireless efforts for wildlife species and natural community conservation led this document.

  • Niagara Escarpment, a Natural Wonder in Wisconsin
    Niagara Escarpment, A Natural Wonder in Wisconsin Sheboygan Press 7-2-3016 Eastern Wisconsin is graced with a number of rare geographic features that create a dream landscape for outdoor enthusiasts. We have the Kettle Moraine which runs the length of western Sheboygan County. We have Lake Michigan, a veritable inland sea, which forms the eastern boundary of the county. And we have the Niagara Escarpment. Though lesser known, it is equally impressive in the things it offers in the areas of science, history and education. The escarpment is actually a cuesta which is defined as a ridge with a gentle slope on one side and a steep slope on the other. It extends about 250 miles through the area beginning with a few isolated outcrops in Waukesha County on the south. The ridge then disappears under glacial sediment until it re-emerges in Dodge County. Well exposed in Fond du Lac County, and locally known as the Ledge, it is best seen in the area of St. Mary’s Hill on Highway 23 just east of the city of Fond du Lac. In Calumet County, it is most visible at the northeastern end of Lake Winnebago near Sherwood. From there it continues into Brown County and winds northeast along Green Bay and up the west side of the Door County peninsula. Disappearing under the Great Lakes, it remerges in Ontario, and continues on into New York State where it forms the steep drop that is Niagara Falls. Contrary to popular belief, the Niagara Escarpment is not a fault line or the result of glaciation.
