Description of the Wisconsin State Flag: The Wisconsin flag features a dark blue field with the motto "Forward" written above a badger, the state animal. Underneath are a variety of images tied to the state. The state coat of arms sits between a sailor and a miner, to symbolize people working on water and land. Four sections within the coat of arms represent the states' four main industries: agriculture, mining, manufacturing, and navigation. The cornucopia and lead pile represent farm products and minerals, both important to the Wisconsin economy.
