    The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources will be increasing chronic wasting disease (CWD) sampling surveillance efforts in southeast Alabama after the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) announced the confirmation of a positive CWD test sample from a road-killed deer in Holmes County, Florida.

    Due to the detection of CWD in Holmes County, Florida, ADCNR’s Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries (WFF) Division will deploy additional self-service, drop-off CWD sampling freezer locations throughout southeast Alabama and increase CWD surveillance efforts, as outlined in Alabama’s CWD Surveillance and Response Plan. For more information about CWD sampling and a map of self-service, drop-off CWD sampling locations statewide, visit www.outdooralabama.com/cwd/cwd-sampling.

    A CWD positive deer was found on the side of 90 in East Milton (Santa Rosa County, FL) last year. I think it did not make the news because the authorities couldn't figure out if it was dumped there by a hunter coming home from Alabama or if it was shot locally. I made a thread about on the forum

    Fear porn. I can’t remember ever seeing a sick deer in my life. Injured yeah. Diseased no. Is this there way of culling the herd like they did with chickens and “bird flu?”
    Normally I would agree with you but I don't think this CWD has anything to do with getting rid of the food. Or else "they" would have made a big deal about CWD in every state years ago

    Cwd isn't a new thing. Been around a long time. Just new to Florida.
