Seems more likely than feeding a bunch of non-infected deer and them passing the disease that isn't there in the first place.


currently that is only a theory as there has not been any incidences of CWD ACTUALLY being transmitted in that manner.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....
