The voucher is not redeemable for cash but may be gifted to another individual. The voucher may be redeemed during the season year that the CWD-positive deer was harvested or the following deer season year.

It's funny how they told us the only way to stop the spread of hogs across the state is to remove the incentive of hunting them. Now, they are telling us that the way to stop the spread of CWD is to give hunters more incentive to hunt them. I'd love to say all hunter's stay within the law when it comes to hunting, but we all know better. Do they not realize that by incentivizing more hunters into CWD areas to hunt they're only increasing the chances of the spread of CWD by hunters not following the processing protocols before they take their deer home?
