This is not where my question was heading.

My question had to do with how does one decide when a deer with CWD is NOT okay to eat. Where is that grey area where you do or do not eat it.   How do you tell? What if you miss the key points that would have made you decide not to eat it. We "must" have decided it wasn't good to eat it at some point. Will that point be at different times for different people.   If "I" decide that I won't eat a deer because of visuals that turn me off, should we fault the guy who decides that it is okay to eat it? And are we not eating it because it is sick? Or are we not eating it because it is sick with CWD? Or just "has" CWD?

"Looked absolutely healthy"    What does that mean? Does it mean different things to different people?

Different topic.
How much beef do you eat from cows/beefers that are on their way out? A butcher friend said that as long as the cow can walk to the processing area, it is okay to butcher it and use the meat.   ?? Don't know if he meant for personal consumption or for sale to the "unsuspecting" consumer.

[QUOTE="Maddog, post: 389773, member: 5355"] This is not where my question was heading. My question had to do with how does one decide when a deer with CWD is NOT okay to eat. Where is that grey area where you do or do not eat it. How do you tell? What if you miss the key points that would have made you decide not to eat it.

If "I" decide that I won't eat a deer because of visuals that turn me off, should we fault the guy who decides that it is okay to eat it? And are we not eating it because it is sick? Or are we not eating it because it is sick with CWD? Or just "has" CWD? "Looked absolutely healthy" What does that mean? Does it mean different things to different people? Different topic. How much beef do you eat from cows/beefers that are on their way out? A butcher friend said that as long as the cow can walk to the processing area, it is okay to butcher it and use the meat. ??
