I dont understand why it continues to be news, nothing can be done except a bunch of if money being thrown down a black hole!
And allow practically no limit, wide open rifle seasons to eradicate deer populations. I guess technically if you kill all the deer, you "solved" the CWD problem.
I think it's all overblown. Some states like MN and WI have had it for 20+ years now and last I checked, their deer herds aren't hurting. Shoot I think WI still has the highest deer density in the US. So evidently CWD hasn't killed every deer yet.
To me it seems like the extended rifle seasons states are implementing in CWD areas are worse for the deer herd than CWD is.
But then again, I'm not an 'expert' like that TWRA biologist who lied about a bunch of counties being CWD positive.
