The focus of this podcast was Chronic Waste Disease in Deer. Dr. Jacob Dykes, AgriLife Extension Wildlife Specialist and Robert Scott, AgriLife Extension Agent in Lubbock County discuss everything there is to know about this disease. The discussion focused on understanding this disease and some of the misconceptions. Dr. Dykes discussed where it came from, how to handle testing and carcasses, how it spreads, guidelines for keeping it from spreading, and other important aspects of control and safety. There was a lot of conversation and frequently asked questions. This is an important topic and great information for ranchers and hunters so I hope you enjoy.
