Crossing the line from elk to humans but not elk to wolves?  Seems the wolves are the ones at risk since that is what they seek out.  Next is kill all of those nasty sickened elk and deer to protect the wolf, they eat beef you know and those are cared for and healthy.

This proves itself. Just think of all the elk in Yellowstone that must have been infected.

Makes perfect sense.With nothing to weed out the sick animals the sick animals continue to infect healthy animals.Sooner or later the sick animals will infect the entire forest.

The CWD being dangerous to humans is interesting because some people make deer head soup or use bones for food.
