Default RE: chronic wasting disease

not true cnhntr at all. you cannot tell that it has CWD just by looking at brain. you have to be an expert to do this.

Trout, i wouldn not worry about it. in teh zones in Colorado that have it, nobody has gotten sick or died from CWD since the 1960's. it has never made a recorded jump from animal to humans. We own a big tract of land in the outer CWD zone in wisconsin and we dont have any problems with it. we just have shot more does and got the population down.its really a shame that those damn high fence canned hunt people probably brought it into the state, but thats a whole nother topic. basically, you really dont have to worry about it. we've had a half dozen heads tested and they all came back negative. i dont wear gloves either. a little blood on my hands isnt going to kill me.
