While not the official nickname, Wisconsin is often called the Dairy State in reference to their large dairy industry. "America's Dairyland" is written on their state license plates. Wisconsin's official nickname is The Badger State. It is called this because of the 19th century lead miners who lived in caves cut into the hillsides that looked like badger dens; the badger has been Wisconsin's state animal since 1957.
