[QUOTE="Allen, post: 415835, member: 389"] Right, I think we're on the same page with there possibly being a trigger associated with glyphosate. However, as you mentioned there may be many other contributing factors in the soil such as pH, nutrients, etc. If that were the case, I think CWD would still be largely contained to those areas with that nutrient, pH, chemical environment. It's not, rather CWD is now spreading across a near infinite number of different soil types. At least, I don't know of any area of the country where CWD has hit some type of natural barrier to transmission. [ATTACH type="full"]68272[/ATTACH] The above map covers a vast area of the continent with very old soils from igneous rocks out in Idaho, to very young soils generated from sedimentary rock out here on the plains, and again back to Canadian Shield based soils in northern MN. Perhaps, this is a better map at showing more of a disease based spread than an environmental spread. [ATTACH type="full"]68273[/ATTACH] So, while the discussion on the science of micro nutrients and the changes/effects a chemical like glyphosate can have on those in a cervid's (or human's) body is worth looking into, I see more correlation than I do causation.
