[QUOTE="BrockW, post: 413580, member: 5910"] Same here. Though I have helped my buddies fill their feeders during that time. So does that make me biased for baiting? I think you’re being illogical. If his study was done specifically on baiting, and it was severely flawed or not able to pass the rigors of peer review, I would agree with you. Peer review is usually pretty good at spotting bias in results. However, in reality, Kreeger’s study had nothing to do with baiting. He had a facility where they were conducting research on CWD positive elk. To test environmental and horizontal transmission, he simply put 39 naive elk in where the previously infected study elk had lived. Within 3 years, 37 of the 39 elk died from end stage CWD. Keep in mind elk regularly live into their teens and cow elk get into the upper teens. The last 2 died in the subsequent 2 years. Again, all 39 clinical end stage CWD. I sent that same study to Mr. Backer who runs the “Chronic Wasting Dis ease” FB page. The next day he made a post saying how CWD isn’t contagious. Literally, like the day after I shared that study with him he posted this. [ATTACH type="full"]67727[/ATTACH] Again, I’m not arguing with you. I don’t expect you or them to change your minds. I’ve dealt with enough of the CWD is a conspiracy folks to know that’s a useless game. I just want good, factual information, the truth to get out there and be seen by North Dakotans, and I know this conversation and these posts will get seen by many folks. So mission accomplished for me, regardless of what you think. [/QUOTE]
