There's an article on the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel online that says that a buck shot on a "shooting preserve" near Ashland was found to be positive for a test for CWD. They're going to send a sample to a lab in Iowa to confirm the results. Those should be available this week. Not sure if I can post a link on this site, but search JSonline and look in the Sports/Outdoors section.
If you search the "Ashland Current", there's an article there that says that the deer farm was recently sold. An inspection of the fence by the DNR found a "breech" that could allow deer to enter or escape the closed area.
Hopefully, CWD didn't get out of there.
