[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 694158, member: 97"] I would put it to two reasons- number one is that is where the original cows that were imported from Britain where the 1993 cow tested positive were from--some herdmates of which were never accounted for- and are believed to have entered the food/feed chain...That and several Alberta area feed suppliers were caught violating the feed ban- allowed it to manifest itself a lot longer and spread a lot more... The second- is I believe Alberta did much more testing- and paid more for farmers/ranchers to have downers tested... More testing- more found--- which makes you wonder how many are being missed without mandatory testing :???: [/QUOTE]
