It took a little over a year, but the Department of Natural Resources finally filled the vacant wildlife biologist position for Rusk and Taylor counties this summer with the hiring of Wausau native Joshua Spiegel.

Spiegel is a 2010 graduate of Northland College in Ashland, where he earned a four-year bachelor’s degree with an emphasis on wildlife and fish ecology. He worked as a DNR wildlife technician in Merrill for a couple of years before spending six months in California working a fisheries research project for UC-Berkeley. The project had him working on property surrounding Yosemite National Park.

Stationed at the DNR’s Ladysmith office, Spiegel can be contacted at 715-523-4369 or Joshua.Spiegel@wisconsin.gov  regarding local wildlife issues or concerns.
