CHRONIC WASTING DISEASE CWD WISCONSIN Almond Deer (Buckhorn Flats) Farm  Update DECEMBER 2011 
>>> The CWD infection rate was nearly 80%, the highest ever in a  North American captive herd. 
Despite the five year premise plan and site decontamination, The WI DNR has  concerns over the bioavailability of infectious prions at this site to wild  white-tail deer should these fences be removed. Current research indicates that  prions can persist in soil for a minimum of 3 years. 
However, Georgsson et al. (2006) concluded that prions that produced  scrapie disease in sheep remained bioavailable and infectious for at least 16  years in natural Icelandic environments, most likely in contaminated soil.  
Additionally, the authors reported that from 1978-2004, scrapie recurred on  33 sheep farms, of which 9 recurrences occurred 14-21 years after initial  culling and subsequent restocking efforts; these findings further emphasize the  effect of environmental contamination on sustaining TSE infectivity and that  long-term persistence of prions in soils may be substantially greater than  previously thought. <<<

Can hunting endangered animals save the species?
Lunacy is a kind word. conservation, sustaining a species is one thing,  saving a species, to hunt it as high dollar exotics, that’s not conservation. if  it makes you fell good, call it what you want. I weep. I’m sure God did not want  man to muck up the world so bad, calling it progress, while bringing species  after species to extinction, then pooling what’s left over in game farms and  calling it ‘exotic hunting’ for high dollar price $$$, and then calling it  conservation. call me stupid, I call it the end as we once knew it. I  weep.
with kind regards,
I am sincerely,
