TIMES STAFF REPORT Published 3:50 p.m. CT Aug. 15, 2017 | Updated 3:51

 
A federal grant of almost $200,000 will help the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe identify walleye habitat in Mille Lacs Lake.

The Tribal Wildlife Grant of $199,075 comes from the U.S. Department of the Interior.

  ...
The department also announced Tuesday that it allocated $993,310 to Minnesota state wildlife agencies through the TWG and State Wildlife Grants programs. Nationwide, $48 million is being distributed through SWG to protect species in greatest conservation need.

  ..
The fragile walleye population in Mille Lacs Lake has been the subject of studies, disputes and special regulations for a number of years. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources regularly studies the fish population.

I wonder if I can get a grant for some valuable info?  Here it is:  quit spearing vulnerable females while trying to spawn.  Now they can send me a check and I only require $100,000.
