[QUOTE="Riggen&Jiggen, post: 240875, member: 564"] A few have mentioned earlier if they ban baiting are they also going to ban bird feeders and such. Most people would laugh about linking baiting to bird feeders. I would think it was stupid myself however my father in law lives in a small town that is located by a few draws. He has a bird feeder and when winters get tough he gets up to 10 deer in his yard. The deer actually cross a highway to get to his yard. I also am talking about a regular bird feeder not a bucket or barrel of feed. Crazy stuff I thought anyways. If anyone drives around the country side in February knows that baiting holds no candle to the wintering or yarding up behavior of deer. It is normal to see up to 100 deer wintering in one 40 acre field. Locations of these wintering areas are determined by cattle feed, crop type & placement and cover. Deer do this to survive ND winters. I would say that at least 70% of our deer population in ND hang out in close proximity to multiple deer for several weeks a year. If CWD is going to spread it will regardless of any laws that are put in place. Biggest concern for me regarding CWD is not the deer herd but how it will effect us humans. If this stuff can be found in vegetation so does this mean it is in our crops? I don't like the idea of consuming mutated proteins even if the experts claim it does not effect us. [/QUOTE]
