McDonald, Barry and Cedar Counties are in the CWD management zone– meaning it is required that hunters have their deer sampled this weekend.Every hunter will be notified if their deer tests positive for CWD.“We encourage everybody to be safe. Opening weekend statewide, there’s probably going to be more than 400,000 hunters out in the wood. It’s a big time for a lot of Missourians. This is a season they look forward to all year, but never let that excitement overrule good judgment,” said Francis Skalicky, Media Specialist, Missouri Department of Conservation.Deer that have been tested for Chronic Wasting Disease can be taken to a processor and donated to the “Share The Harvest” program to provide venison to those in need.Wow, what if the samples were mixed up? A person in need didn't need that.They have tested 150,000 deer. If they test another 150,000, will that make the disease go away? Bureaucrats need to have their heads tested.</blockquote>
