“ Scientists said they know of no case of the disease being transmitted to humans through tainted venison or other means. But studies showing its risks to nonhuman primates raise concerns, according to the CDC”
*****************************************************************************

Not being transmitted to humans? This CALLS FOR GAIN-OF-FUNCTION RESEARCH!

Paging Dr Fauci!

The Whitetail deer population in the Black Hills of Wyoming and South Dakota has been devastated by hronic wasting disease. I was at a gun club meeting last night where hunters were displaying their trophies, and there were a lot of great elk trophies, but only a few deer. There were at least 8 to 10 elk that were in the 325+ point range for their antlers. I wasn’t here when Wyoming went through 2+ years of drought but this year we got a lot of moisture and the grass was tall and green until late August and the elk just grew large and fat with the bulls growing massive racks.

Maybe we can end car wrecks with deer forever if we implement a deer vaccination campaign

To many mule deer have this to make hunting for meat worth your while. KS venison is off the table for now.

Prion disease is deadly and scary as all hell.

“Compared to other pathogenic agents, prions are incredibly resistant to most routine methods of decontamination and sterilization. According to an article published in the Clinical Infectious Diseases journal, no single method of decontamination or sterilization has been shown to be 100% effective against prions.”

In nature, it might be said that prions do not denature, but remain in the environment until physically removed.

The deer just need the mask up for 2 weeks and stay away from other deer
