Also, it has been documented in 22 states, with 20 of those being in wild herds. Also in 2 Canadian Provinces.
No doubt the unethical hunting behavior of some of our "brethren" doesn't help, but why is it that we will do everything in our power to prevent or extirpate a disease in humans, but not make every effort to do so in a game population?
It is ironic that hunters have tried for centuries to create as much opportunity to hunt game as possible, going to such lengths as extirpating predators, but now are not concerned about a disease that has spread across the continent in 50 years. Mind you, a deer did not travel from Colorado to New York on its own, yet CWD is there.
