6% infection rate in the deer in the states affected. The prions are in the brains and spinal cords.

Could you point me to the article or URL that discusses the above? I'd like to read it. Is there any speculation as to the way the deer become infected? Cattle supposedly get it from ingesting ground up infected sheep parts in their feed.

Well thanks. It looks as if we have a disaster in the making here. Even if hunters were to back off the deer, it is possible the deer will have to be killed, depending upon the nature of the disease. I was planning to go for deer on Friday and Saturday. Oklahoma is still far enough west to give me confidence. However, I haven't had goose for awhile. Haven't heard much about mad goose disease. So goose sounds real good. (grin)
