You point out that this thread is about carrying deer across borders and not private property. Then why post that video, which was created by deer farmers?

You asked the million dollar question that none of these people can answer...if it is some concocted disease, what is the end goal?

Answer that.

Hey, I guess the Norwegians are in on it, too.

I don't think it was a created disease, I think it is a disease that has been around forever and we just didn't know about it. I think it warrants no threat to our deer herds, and obviously has been studied enough to know that this is most likely true. If we start letting the gov restrict and ban things every time there is the smallest chance on earth something will happen, then pretty soon we won't be able to hunt or fish at all.

So, what do you make of this article?

From a half a percent in 2002 to over 5% in 2012. Thats a 10-fold increase in 10 years.

I don't think we know everything about this disease. I don't think we know how it's spread so sporadically, yet managed to find its way into 23 states. So I DEFINITELY don't think we know enough to know how severe it could become under the right conditions.
