Abstract

The article reports on the annual statistics on Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) from various U.S. states. This fatal disease reduces brain function in deer, elk and moose but is not communicable to humans or livestocks. Only few states have discovered traces of the disease such as Kansas with eight infected deer and Wisconsin, a CWD hotspot. Michigan also tested their 9,000 unconfined deer and found no traces of CWD.
