Why is it that high fence operations are at such high risk for CWD than the regular population? I doubt it's because of deer density since lots of wild populations are just as high. More older deer? That's possible and since older deer are more susceptible that may make sense, but I just don't think so. What about feeding programs? Once it became known that mad cow was spread by the feed farmers were feeding they got it under control (right?). I'm wondering about the feed in these high fence operations...what's in it? Is it just corn? Deer pellets? What's in the deer pellets?
Again, my question is why are high fence operations high risk? Haven't seen anything about that so far.
