No one would know if CWD has spread east off the Mississippi River (except Wisconsin) because ONLY Wisconsin has been testing for it (past 3 years). Some states have now begun testing/monitoring or formed a action plan, but most samples will be taken during the up coming gun deer season.

Only a handful of labs in the country are certified to handle CWD testing, and will be over capacity this season. Results will most likely start being released in the Feb, March, April time frame.

Prions have never been located/discovered in urine or tarsal glands, so bottled scents are safe.
