DNR information meeting/Iowa

(1/4) > >>

BowEd:
Just got this letter from the DNR.I've heard of CWD before.In the brain stem and spinal fluid is all I know about it.A person does'nt want that fluid on their knife while butchering.I'm going to the meeting though to get all the info that's important I can.

Hawkdancer:
That's pretty bad news!  CWD can decimate a herd!  Be sure to sanitize your knives and/or hatchet after field dressing big game.  Bleach, alcohol wipes, wear surgical gloves, and clean your hands as well.  If DNR sets up testing, and they should, get your game tested!  We've been dealing without here for 10 years or more, Seems to be waning at present, but I get mine tested.

BowEd:
Yes Hawk I kinda realized that.I'm going to check it out better yet at that meeting.

mullet:
I'm glad it's not in the South. But most of the Wildlife People down here have established some strict rules about any deer, or parts coming into this region.

BowEd:
It's been in regions of Wisconsin in the past I've heard.Never had any cases around here though.The DNR people are plenty strict about the precautions of that up here too.We have a very high deer per square mile population also.
Let me get something clear here.This is by no means an epidemic or out of control situation.
