But what I can’t comprehend is how does “targeted removal” or (indiscriminate slaughtering if we’re calling it what it really is)help in genetically strengthening the herd?…. As there is no way to test a live animal for cwd….. Firstly you are eradicating genes both good and bad. Secondly you are shrinking your genetic diversity in that areas which took generations to build. And lastly what if you wipe out the genes for  other disease immunity that have been built up in the herd over those generations….Hur-fucking-ray we saved fhe heard from CWD but now pneumonia and EHD kills them off every single year. Abd thats not even getting into what happens after you wipe out all the deer in aj area…. What do the predators eat? they will turn to other game and non game species…. It will negatively impact everything up and down the ecosystem. Pheasants and turkeys will especially get hit hard once deer are gone. It’s sounds like an incredibly reckless and idiot idea to screw with an ecosystem that badly. I actually cannot believe anyone with any science background would actually think fucking with the ecosystem to this magnitude would be a good idea for a disease that doesn’t even kill deer in ND!!</p></blockquote><p></p>
