Title: CWD test results 🤤🤫
Post by: hunter399 on November 20, 2025, 06:28:24 AM: Has anyone got results back yet
Think my sample was submitted 4th day of modern.
I'm hungry for mule deer man sticks .

The conspiracy theory.....
That no results are given till season closed ,so they don't have to replace tags.

Another question....
Would you all support discount tags for positive results for next year.
Meaning your deer tag would be discounted the following year,if you hit a positive result this year.

And we have been eating the crap out of it. Roasts burgers, pepperoni we have enjoyed it all. I might be more worried if they had any documented cases of human infection

Post by: buglebuster on November 20, 2025, 07:17:50 AM: I got both of my daughters results back 2 weeks ago. 1 shot 3rd day of modern and one shot 7th day. Dropped them at drop off box in pomeroy. I shot my buck 2nd day of early muzzy season and no drop stations near so took into the local Yakima wdfw office. They weren’t sure what to do with them but contacted the biologist and she said take info and put in ziplock and freeze and she would take care of them. Fast forward to now and still says nothing found in the system for results. I contacted Yakima office and they said they’d been sent off.

We had also been eating on the 3 deer well before results with no worry :chuckle:

At least someone got a result back. Kinda blows the conspiracy theory apart.

As far as eating before results,that's just personal preference.
I've heard of many that didn't test at all ,and eat up.
Nothing wrong with that.

The odds of eating a positive deer are so low right now.
Really nothing to worry about.
