Increasing the number of deer removed in areas where CWD has been found increases the chances of removing more infected deer. Targeted removals also serve to lower the number of deer in these areas. By removing infected deer and lowering deer numbers, targeted removals help to slow the spread of CWD and protect Missouri’s deer population.</p><p>Body</p><p>Post-season targeted removal is the only tested method of slowing the spread of CWD in a local deer population. States such as Illinois have had success in slowing the spread of CWD in areas through targeted removals. <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167587713002894" target="_blank">Learn more about targeted removal in Illinois and Wisconsin</a>.</p><p>Limiting the number of CWD-infected deer in an area also helps minimize the accumulation of CWD in the local environment.</p><p>MDC does <strong>not</strong> conduct targeted removals on a county-wide level. Targeted removal occurs in locations within one to two miles of CWD detections. The exact size of the removal operation depends on the number of positives detected and where they were found.</p><p>Title</p><h3>CWD Targeted Removal</h3><p>Embed Code</p></blockquote><p></p>
