I've personally found six carcasses in SW PA - all victims of EHD. One (I'd presume) big buck with the head cut out - no real way to confirm whether he was a victim of disease of poaching. So, we'll say 5 EHD casualties, with one unknown.

Definitely not a good scene man.

There are a lot of 3rd, 4th, and 5th-hand reports flowing in of completedevastation (100% mortality)to the herd in isolated pockets.I put on a lot of miles, andfrankly, I think it's hogwash. Like I said, I found six.I don't believe it unless I see it with my own eyes, or see credible photographic evidence.

My advice: Don't overreact, and trust what you see. Not what you hear.
