The Wisconsin Deer Management Assistance Program (DMAP) is a cooperative effort between the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, landowners and hunters to provide habitat and deer herd management assistance to those interested in managing their property for wildlife. Wildlife and forestry professionals assist landowners with management practices that consider the ecological and social impacts white-tailed deer have on the landscape. In return, DMAP cooperators can choose to share habitat information, collect biological data and participate in DMAP workshops. This one-on-one relationship, stressing communication and cooperation, makes DMAP a flexible and effective deer management program for private and public lands alike.

Joining DMAP
Whether you have five acres or five hundred, DMAP has something to offer. All DMAP cooperators have access to a vast library of habitat management resources, direct communication with professional biologists and foresters and regular workshops on a wide variety of topics. Depending on the number of acres enrolled in DMAP, landowners may also choose to have an on-site visit with a biologist and forester, who assess the overall health and quality of wildlife habitat on the property and work with the landowner to formulate a property management plan based on the goals and objectives of the landowner.

DMAP Cooperatives
One of the fundamental values of DMAP is that white-tailed deer are an important wildlife resource in Wisconsin, and should be held in the public trust for the benefit of all people. With over 400,000 acres of land enrolled across 71 counties, DMAP seeks to bring landowners and managers together to provide healthy habitats and healthy deer across the state.
One way we achieve this is by forming group cooperatives between neighboring landowners. Properties within half a mile of one another may be enrolled under the same DMAP profile, allowing cooperators to share resources and potentially enroll at a higher level of DMAP than they would be able to individually. If you are interested in joining or forming a group cooperative, you are encouraged to reach out to your neighbors and apply with them or contact your local DMAP Specialist, who may be able to put you in touch with nearby DMAP landowners.
