That's a big part of the problem, I agree. Can you imagine how many children would demand Mc Nuggets if they had to slay the chicken first?

I don't see how captive deer could be worth hunting. After all, it misses the whole point. Sick deer shouldn't be eaten, but I've never seen one. Herds that are not hunted regularly can become sick, unless there are plenty of predators available.

CWD has been a big story locally for the past few years, as you might judge from perusing jsonline.com and jsonline.com . But CJD is rare and has a very long incubation period, so any linkage is going to be very hard to verify. In England, where one would presume a lot more people ate mad cows that will ever eat CWD deer, there were 1000 CJD deaths over the last 15 years, see cjd.ed.ac.uk .
