CWD

[Vairochana]

Gday, I was reading some og the hunting threads and I keep seeing CWD. I am from OZ and have never heard of it, is it like Foot and Mouth?
A bit OT I know but still relevant I hope.

Cheers

Not a good thing, by any means.

Good site.
SO, it is a bit like Mad Cow in deer?

Yes it belongs to that family of diseases.

Yes, and it appears that it is very difficult to remove the infectious agent from the LAND, even for years. Much worse than foot-and-mouth, and here to stay with us for a long time, as I see it.
