[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 252849, member: 704"] One thing to keep in mind is that our Game and Fish are simply employees doing what they are told. We need to look deeper and see who pulls the strings that make them dance. We elect people then they tell public employees where the bear craps in the woods. When we talk about research we are talking huge expenditures. The equipment would run over a million dollars. I don't think our state Game and Fish has the kind of money to spend on the research needed. That and it would require a half dozen specialists at over $100K even $200K each. A graduate degree doesn't mean finishing eighth grade. As far as how serious CWD is I don't think we are taking it serious enough. Because we know so little is no reason to do nothing. Are there any of us here really qualified to speak about CWD? I really doubt it. If we knew half as much as some of the posters think they know we would have already cured it and every cancer. How much did the high fence guys spend on lobbyists to tell our politicians what they want, and in turn tell our Game and Fish what they could and couldn't do? How many people did they sucker into thinking it wasn't important? Who will they blame when everything goes to crap? How many have expressed an opinion to their representatives, and how do we vote? Because of ignorance I predict this problem will not be solved and our deer population now will look like a boom in the future. [/QUOTE]
