DNR Offering $25 Rebate On Endangered Resources License Plates

 Sales Support Wisconsin’s Native Species In Need

MADISON, Wis. – The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is celebrating 30 years of Endangered Resources license plates by offering a $25 rebate for new purchases now through Dec. 31, 2024.

Since 1994, sales of Endangered Resources license plates have played a critical role in funding DNR conservation work for more than 400 wildlife species and 300 plant species listed as endangered, threatened or special concern. The DNR works across the department and with partners and volunteers to locate, protect and manage native plants, animals and Wisconsin’s natural communities from the common to the critically endangered.

One example of how funds are used is the creation and upkeep of the nation’s most extensive system of State Natural Areas, preserving native ecosystems and special geologic features. These sites provide habitat for many of the state’s endangered plant and animal species.

“The $25 rebate helps more people support rare species and unique places in Wisconsin while showing that support on their car or truck,” said Drew Feldkirchner, DNR Natural Heritage Conservation Director.

How To Buy An Endangered Resources Plate And Get A Rebate

The rebate offer is available through Dec. 31, 2024, for people who buy new Endangered Resources license plates or for current plateholders who switch from one plate design to another. People can buy a license plate at any time, and there is no need to wait for registration renewal.

To buy a new plate, visit the Endangered Resources license plate webpage to download and complete the DNR Rebate Form and the WisDOT Endangered Resources License Plate Application Form. Please allow up to six weeks for processing the rebate checks.
