there are now 21 test check-in locations around the state and all are asked to bring heads for testing and all feeding laws have been suspended, so it will probably take at least this year to get usable data (of course, not all will comply). the routine is to keep the head cool or frozen, if you don’t take it directly from the skinning shed to the check station, debone meat and process, then wait for test results before consumption. haven’t heard about incinerating carcasses, but if not already happening it will, soon...otherwise it is digging an, at least, 8 foot hole to discard and bury the carcass in.

this is prior to the Marshall Co case and statewide feedin ban
