Wildlife Damage & Claims Program:
This program is a cooperative effort with the County, DNR and USDA Wildlife Services. It is offered to protect high value crops from deer, turkey and bear damage. The crops must be for commercial sales. Examples are apple orchards, fruits such as strawberries, and pumpkins. Landowners must notify us when damage first occurs and follow the recommended procedures to deter further damage before they will be eligible for a damage claim.
