[QUOTE="wct12, post: 391545, member: 8117"] I've asked Dr Bahnson the question on CWD resistance genes in the past before and they aren't even interested in testing for stuff like this in the wild.. in units like 3f2 where they are pushing a culling through massive tag allotments, on the deer that are turned in and tested negative why wouldn't they want to see if something like that was becoming more common in the wild herds rather than just completely dismiss it?.. (i would bet its because there isn't a decent chunk of federal dollars tied to testing for that, rather than testing for positives and putting up billboards and pickup decals). Look at Scrapies in sheep.. Its a prion disease that has been almost completely selectively bred out through genetics (i get in a wild herd this isn't as quick of a process as in a domesticated livestock herd). But over time this is something that could become viable possibly (add that to the AFWA documents since i put possibly in there). I'm not calling for dumping deer that are the carrier of the resistance gene in the wild by any means, but why not at least look into if wild deer in CWD areas carriers? [/QUOTE]
