Mad Cow Disease Rampant in Colorado, Wyoming, and Nebraska
by William Cooper
Veritas News Service -- Exclusive, April 5, 2001 -- The cover-up of Mad Cow Disease in the United States is beginning to self destruct. According to a State of Colorado Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife (DOW) letter, Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy, in Europe it is known as Mad Cow Disease, is rampant in the mule deer, whitetail deer, and elk population of Colorado, Wyoming, and Nebraska. The very same disease in humans is called Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease. It is always fatal in animals and humans reducing the brain to a spongy mass over the period of infection.
According to our confidential souces Colorado State University has been experimenting with injecting animals, deer, pronghorn, and elk with the disease. I can't prove it but I believe that some of the animals may have escaped quarantine and contaminated the whole area over a long period of time.
The university is located in Glacier View northwest of Ft. Collins. For the last couple years hunters have been required to cut off the heads of their deer, put a tag on them, and drop it in barrels that have been placed at intersections of highways around the mountains. DOW tests the animals promising to notify the hunters if the meat is infected. If the hunter doesn't hear from DOW in six weeks, they are to assume that the
meat is okay. Some families who ate the meat after six weeks were notified after 8 weeks that the meat was contaminated.
When hujnters send their deer to a meat processor it is mixed with all the other carcasses. There is no way to monitor this as the deer bodies are brought in fresh. They cannot hold a deer carcass for over six weeks before processing! They don't have that kind of storage facilities and/or freezers.
To cover-up the true nature of the disease in Colorado it has been called CWD or Chronic Wasting Disease. The problem has become so serious that the Division of Wildlife has been forced to tell the truth calling for a public meeting on April 7, 2001 to ask for the publics help in reducing the deer population by 50% in an effort to reduce spread of the disease.
Most of the state of Colorado is infected. The heaviest concentration of the disease has been found in Game Management Unit 9 north of Fort Collins between US highway 287 and I-25 up to the Wyoming state line. Units around the Red Feathers area, Masonville, Glacier View, and Estes Park are also experiencing high levels of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy. |
