Default RE: DEADLY VIRUS HITS IL DEER!

We had one nice year and halfer succomb to this. It was brutal. State Biologist in Southern IL said he had not received as many calls as he was expecting. I was only the second call, but that was a few weeks ago. He led me to believe that a lot of rain would help too. But he told me also that it wasn't really new. He said every two or three years there is a recurrance of this, but it is especially prominent during drought type years. If I could figure out how to get the pics off my phone, I'd post them.
