Danny, you seem to think the bill is dead this year, or will SB271 some how get it passed? I think that unless there is contamination from prions then there is no way any deer can get the disease. If you aren't exposed to poison ivy, the claps, measles or anything that has an effect on your body you aren't going to get it. The baiting has no affect either way, unless the prions are in the area and if they are there then the baiting part isn't going to matter that much..
