i thought I should share with you Ranchers and Farmers. As most of you know, Chronic Wasting Disease CWD TSE Prion of Cervids is spreading across the US, with no stopping it to date, new transmission studies are showing that indeed CWD has the potential to jump species, oral transmission studies showing CWD can transmit to cattle, sheep, pigs, and to deer. But what concerns me is the way CWD can transmit both vertically and horizontally, and most concerning is the CWD TSE prion distribution in not only brains, eyes, CNS, but also MEATs as well, and the most disturbing of all, is the environmental spread of CWD TSE Prion. For these reasons, i thought some of you folks might should see the…kind regards, terry

Arkansas CWD Deer Study Final 2025

4. Objective 4 and 6 - Infection rates and population modeling

a. In 2024, CWD sample prevalence was 40% across the study area, with higher rates seen in males (65%) than in females (34%).

b. Approximately 50% of males tested positive for CWD by the age of 2.5.

c. White-tailed deer abundance in the study area declined, driven by reduced lifespans and lower lifetime reproduction.

d. If survival does not increase, this population is expected to continue to decline.

Captive Cervid and the Economic Burden of Chronic Wasting Disease CWD TSE Prion?

The economic burden of ignoring CWD would be far greater, imo, with time, if no cervid were left, or just a select few, if the environment/property was so exposed and saturated with CWD, that you couldn’t sell it, you couldn’t grow crops because of the soil saturation of the CWD, water tables saturated with CWD, saturation of hay, grains, from crops uptake on said property, cervid meat saturated from Cervid CWD, remember, You cannot cook the TSE prion disease out of meat, In fact new data now shows that exposure to high temperatures used to cook the meat increased the availability of prions for in vitro amplification. So, what Do we do, how many humans and animals do we continue to expose, continue to saturate with the CWD TSE Prion, …
