Hello All,
I hunt in NW KS for deer and and NC Colorado for Elk. Both places are infected with CWD. Kansas GFPs claims 10-20% of the Whitetail Bucks in my unit are infected. They have no published data for other deer.

A quick look at the above map will tell you if your area is impacted. I don't want be an alarmist but it should be on our radar. I personally will no longer eat an animal which has not been tested and my family has been a 2-3 deer/year consumers for decades. I'm really bummed about this whole deal. I post this because it was completely off my radar until a Thanksgiving conversation with extended family from an infected area in MN.
Times change.
