Chronic Wasting Disease Information

As many of you know, we here in Indiana aren't allowed to import deer into the state from any state where Chronic Wasting Disease has been found.  Below are many links to provide you with information about this disease. If you know of other links that contain useful information about this disease please pass that information on to our webmaster so we can have it posted here.

I find it interesting the Indiana DNR is using Chronic Wasting Disease as one of the excuses for shutting down deer hunting preserves and deer farms in Indiana.  If this were the case, don't you think they'd be more concerned with keeping their information up to date instead of 3 years old... http://www.in.gov/dnr/deerhealth/cwd.htm
