The public is invited to discuss local wildlife issues with the DNR Wildlife Division Southwest Management Unit at a meeting on Wednesday, March 28.

The Southwest Management Unit covers the following counties: Muskegon, Ottawa, Kent, Allegan, Barry, Van Buren, Kalamazoo, Calhoun, Berrien, Cass, St. Joseph and Branch.
The public meeting will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, March 28, at the Comfort Inn located at 622 M-89 in Plainwell.
"We feel it is important for residents to be involved with local wildlife issues. It is our desire to use the public meeting process as a way to provide information and exchange ideas with residents in the Southwest Management Unit," said John Lerg, Southwest Management Unit acting supervisor.
