DNR board to consider updating invasives list

MADISON - The state Department of Natural Resources' board is set consider the first revisions to the Wisconsin's invasive species list since it was created five years ago.

The DNR has proposed classifying 49 more organisms as prohibited, which means people can't sell, possess or transport them and must destroy them if they discover them on their property. The agency wants to list 32 other species as restricted, which means people can't sell or move them but can possess them.
