Answer to your question about backtags. First off, WI no longer has backtags (2015 was the last year). When we did have them, they were only issued for deer and bear. Each backtag was individually numbered to identify the Hunter, and what tags they possessed. Their purpose was twofold - one, private landowners could use them to identify trespassers/violators. Two, wardens could check a hunter's license without having to walk up to them (as well as identify people who they saw violating).
Some folks are pretty upset about backtags going away in WI, but I am not one of them.
Hope this answers your question. Love the podcast!
