[QUOTE="db-2, post: 240473, member: 4743"] I assume CWD will kill a deer in time. I assume if one has been found to have it others in the area have it. I will buy into the statement that it can be spread by salvia as deer eat, be it a small grain pile put by a person, food plots or by the hay yard in the rancher yard ect. Deer herd up and the herd will all eat together be it whatever they are eating on. How many deer will die if it is found in a area from the disease? 90%, 10% which is less than what are kill illegal in my area? What % of deer die in areas where CWD has been a big issue? The question has been asked by others on here. I know what it is like to find bang's disease in ones cow herd, same when the vet said there is anthrax in the cow herd. I know what then happens to fix the problem. In north west Minnesota a few years back they began killing deer as some cowboy brought rodeo stock from down south. How that turn out? I believe not one dead deer tested positive for the problem. CWD is a concern as is anything killing off the wildlife be it hard winters, lack of food, coyotes or whatever. I just feel we need to stop for a minute, have a better understanding of just what we are dealing with, discuss it and bring some common sense into the solution (I do not have a lot of faith in game and fish). Sometimes the cure can be worse than the disease with the end results. No food grown or given out for deer anymore. What effect will that have on the wildlife? DB [/QUOTE]
