Deer comments wanted by DNR

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is again establishing deer population goals in several deer permit areas north and west of Cloquet and Duluth (181, 199, 132, 178, and farther north). Beginning next week it will welcome public input on the subject.

The online input process begins Feb. 8 and runs through Feb. 28.
