The soil one is plausible since scientific research has proven that deer need to eat soil to help digestion. BUT again the information you are providing us with is inconclusive and that it tells us what scientific research has found as far back as 1967. [USER=8117]@wct12[/USER]  have you been reading my post about the genetic mutation that some deer have in keeping them from getting sick? Because my experience with cwd is of a short time that I have been reading and debating about this, you are the only one who has brought up that argument. Im not claiming or assuming anything that would say i came up with the idea first, im only pointing out that its interesting that you have brought it up. And we again come up with the same question why isn't their more studies being done on the correlation of prions in animals that have natural immunity like the pig, which can be used as an example of an invasive species that some estimate could be close to a billion population. If scientific research could produce a prion that could be administered to pigs, then pigs could be controlled the same way deer are being controlled naturally. Again Bravo thank you for the articles and I hope you can agree that more research needs to done now so we can find new tools then having to kill an entire herd.</p></blockquote><p></p>
