So keep on calling me names BUT the truth is you have no proof at all just inuendo and supposition. And with that you feel you are the experts. Again I ask where is the proof of your so called facts that deer scents aid in the spread of CWD. You have none so far.
You know I got more out of talking to my now deceased dog than trying to discuss with you what is out there regarding CWD. The disease has been studied for decades since it was found in the CAPTIVE herd out in Colorado. The prions can live forever and there is basically no known way to eliminate them, especially from the soil where infected deer have urinated and defecated, both of which the prions have been found in. If the prions are in urine and that is being used to make any type of scent that is then taken out into an area and dispersed to attract animals, it doesn't take a brain surgeon to understand that just maybe if that avenue is eliminated it is one more way to lessen the spread of the disease. Being proactive, especially in anything involving CWD, is certainly more effective than your way of "my way or the highway" type of philosophy!
