[QUOTE="DeerCamp, post: 5786363, member: 21011"] This is straight from their website. [I]The Kentucky Fish and Wildlife Commission (board) has adopted the authoritative [URL='https://www.fishwildlife.org/application/files/9615/3729/1513/AFWA_Technical_Report_on_CWD_BMPs_FINAL.pdf']Best Management Practices for addressing CWD[/URL]. This report was produced by a panel of deer, elk and wildlife disease experts from the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (AFWA), of which the Department is an active member agency. [B]And from that report[/B] There is evidence that increased hunting pressure to sustain long-term population reduction of wild cervids in disease hotspots may be effective for CWD control. Further modeling efforts suggest that optimizing harvest to target portions of the population most likely to be infected may be effective in limiting CWD (Potapov et al. 2016; Jennelle et al. 2014). In studies conducted in Illinois and Wisconsin, sustained culling by sharpshooters was the only management action that appeared to control CWD (Uehlinger et al. 2016). It is possible that thisstrategy may eliminate CWD in a focal area with few infected animals.[/I] [/QUOTE]
