RE: CWD found in the muscle.
Well CWD is not going away anytime soon. Rest assured it will become MUCH, MUCH worse before it gets ANY better.
As it seems right now thebest defense against spread is to try to do everything we can to eliminate transfer of infection thru mucous at places where many deer gather such as things like cattle feeders and bait piles.
Equally important is thinning the herds to balanced population levels.
As MDBUCKHUNTER sez..... We had 100-135 deer per square mile near Mount Horeb, Black Earth and Blue Mounds, WI.
It's darn near impossible to not have spit swapping with herds at those levels. Heck at those levels, you practically have to climb over deer to get to a stand.
Let's face it - we're in for a long run. Sp let's top the tanks off and do what we can. I believe first priority is whacking ALOT of does. And when I say whack ALOT of does I do mean.................... ALOT!
