Here's video of the first public meeting for anyone interested. The initial containment plan starts at around the 40 minute mark. They plan to kill and test every elk inside the 5 mile radius of the initial finding.

thanks for sharing the link


the first thing I noticed about CWD, is its resistance to enzymes, chemicals, heat, disinfectants and time. Sounds like a Super Disease.

Even if they do find a cure down the road, how in the hell do you go about with a treatment? Maybe treating designated food plots or set up feeders?

The problem is, if this disease can just "lay on the ground" for a long period of time, how can any treatment work?

Dunno
