[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5784323, member: 17"] They adopted this plan because a single study suggested it slows the spread. However, in that study, they had no control. They simply applied the "lower the deer density dramatically" technique to an area where CWD was just showing up, and over a number of years, the rate of increase in positives was slower than in other areas. So they jumped to the conclusion it works - it slows the spread. But what if that [I]slower spread was the normal rate of increase without doing anything [/I]for that area? In my opinion, a pretty destructive leap of faith for a single non-controlled study. [/QUOTE]
