Exactly. Cars will kill more deer in a 1 year span than CWD will the next 10yrs.

Incredibly naive-youve obviously never seen what cwd can do to a deer herd. I have. Not sure if what they're doing is right or wrong, but if you think that stuff is no big deal you are 100% wrong!

Not naive at all lol. Can you read? No one said it wasn't a big deal but to think CWD kills more than automobiles is just dumb. I've lived and hunted in state with CWD present including MI, MS, and TX, so I'm not basing comments on google searches. Look at the number of automobile accidents in Michigan and then look at CWD deaths. EHD kills more deer than CWD. I do know what they are doing IS NOT based on science, even the proposal said that jurisdictional closures were recommended lol.

This is far fetched.

LOL, a lil research shows otherwise... EHD kills way more deer than CWD annually. Most of my living/hunting has been in CWD positive states. A few of those states have over a million whitetail.

“Nationally, statewide rates may exceed 1 in 10 animals. In hotspots, rates of 1 in 4 have been reported. In captive deer, rates are much higher. A rate of nearly 4 in 5 was reported in at least one captive herd.”
Does 1 in 10 deer in a herd get killed by cars?
You might be right in the first year in Washington due to incubation periods I guess, but I have a hard time believing that 1/10 deer in a herd get killed by cars.

Obviously hes pretty convinced he operates on an intellectual level above us, but in this case he completely misses the point. Road kill numbers are high
but road kills don't move into an area and virtually wipe out the majority of the deer. He seems to be saying something like we shouldn't be worrying about cancer because heart attacks kill way more people. In the same way we try to reduce cancer and heart attack deaths, we need to do every thing we can to stop.road kills and cwd. It's not a case of let's just concentrate on the one that causes the most deaths.

End the supplemental feeding and have a massive herd reduction maybe to the point of ending hunting in the Yakima herd. It'll only take one winter like 96 to be the end. So band together as hunters to end hunting? Sounds brilliant!

They don’t really let us hunt the Yakima herd anymore. I am not sure I care much what they do.
Does the banning of transporting bone in quarters apply to everyone including the tribes?
