[QUOTE="ImBillT, post: 3094005, member: 117715"] Plenty of deer die [B]of [/B]CWD, but it’s 100% correct that many die with, rather than of, because CWD takes about two years from the time of infection to kill there deer. That said, unlike covid, nothing survives CWD. It either dies of something else first, or dies of CWD. Same for all know prion diseases. Once prevalence gets high it’s rare to see a mature deer because most of the deer get infected when young. I’m totally in favor of hunting and eating venison. I’ve been getting all my deer and elk tested for seven years now. I haven’t had a positive, but it’ll probably happen. I just applied for a deer tag in a hot zone. I may have it tested twice if I kill one. I still want to hunt there though, and as long as I think that it most likely doesn’t have CWD, I’ll be eating it. [/QUOTE]
