“cwd”

Senators John Hoeven (R-N.D.) and Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) have introduced legislation to address a host of state and federal needs in the fight to contain CWD.

Biologists have long said Ohio's first case of CWD in the whitetail herd is only a matter of time. It appears that time is now here.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has confirmed that a road-killed 4.5-year-old whitetail has tested positive for chronic wasting disease (CWD). It is the first known case of CWD in Florida.

A second wild whitetail deer has tested positive for chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Oklahoma.

Although not inside Oklahoma's, a CWD-positive deer found 2.5-miles south of the state's border has caused the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation (ODWC) to activate the next stage of the CWD Response Plan.

The Louisiana Animal Disease Diagnostic Lab (LADDL) in partnership with the Louisiana Department of Wildlife & Fisheries (LDWF) has detected Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in deer at the Mississippi/Louisiana border.

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) Division of Wildlife has confirmed nine additional wild whitetail deer—five bucks and four does—have tested positive for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD).

A white-tailed deer in the Oklahoma Panhandle has tested positive for chronic wasting disease (CWD), marking the first confirmed case in a free-ranging wild deer in the state.

On Aug. 9, the Michigan DNR approved new regulations for hunting in CWD areas for the 2018 deer season.
