From what I've learned (so far) is that there is no such thing as immunity to CWD in deer. But, there is a genetic trait discovered that indicates some deer take longer (more years in age) for physical symptoms or death to show/occur.....meaning there is more potential to spread the disease by that deer in it's lifetime.

I'm not well educated on CWD genetic research. What little I know about this came from speaking with Georgia's head deer biologist a few months ago.

follow the money

I need to start selling tinfoil hats to a few on this place....SMH

I wish it was that simple.

Within Missouri - MDC is more lethal to the deer herd than CWD. They have killed over 20k pregnant does with less than a .01% infected rate when tested for CWD - this is from their targeted areas. A dead deer can't populate. It's very much like aborting your children because you are scared they might die of covid........
I have less and less respect for MDC as the science just does not match up - I will also say - follow the money. Why does a director get a huge raise but threaten over a 100 employees jobs who many have contributed more than him? I have worked too long for the state and federal agencies to blindly trust what we are fed..........begin to read and examine the science and see what state has been successful at controlling CWD - none. Lots of fear when science shows me we should be more concerned about screw worm in deer.

WI Outdoors,

Educate yourself a little.

You'll be smarter for it.

Or go play golf, smoke a cigar, and don't worry about CWD.

Others, smarter than you and I, will figure it out.
