A video I saw somewhere else questioning CWD. Lots more people feel like it is more of a Covid hoax to stop hunting than I realized. Judge for yourself!
You summed it up really well. Definitely not a hoax but the way Tennessee has treated it has been ridiculous. Look at other states, mainly western states that have CWD and went about their normal business. Some deer die from it and some live from it.I don't think it is a farce. I think it has been turned into a "crisis we can't let go to waste" . Years from now when CWD has lost its punch and we are onto whatever the next big government money making crisis is, I believe the way CWD has been handled will be exposed as one of the great failures of modern conservation.

Good question. Why aren't we seeing dead deer lying all over the place in West TN? Not hit by a car, not killed by a coyote, not one that was shot but not recovered. Just plain dead then tested and found CWD to be the culprit.I've still yet seen where a single deer died from CWD. Plenty have tested positive after they were shot. Where is the dead deer they found and tested??? Deer get sick just like humans and die from multiple causes and then some. I get it that CWD is here but I'm not getting where they say it's as bad as they make it out. I honestly feel like TWRA and those on the CWD bandwagon are doing more damage to the herd then the disease is.

how about DEPREDATION PERMITS!?!It's easy to cherry pick stuff but not much problem to look back farther and then ask what happened to cause such a drop in numbers,
it is if the insurance companies are paying the agency to get the numbers down!Cwd is definitely not a hoax, but the way our state has handled it has been really lousy. There should be much better communication and the idea of killing them all to stop the spread is probably not the right approach.
Ok what about them? they don't report what's killedhow about DEPREDATION PERMITS!?!
Not familiar with WI but there is a maximum carrying capacity for an ecosystemSo what happened in Wi prior to your snippet? View attachment 212635
Well I reckon it crashed? that's why the numbers dropped so much?Not familiar with WI but there is a maximum carrying capacity for an ecosystem
