Re: Acid found in soil may combat CWD
baiting must be much more popular in other regions I guess, I don't see it where i hunt....in 5 years only come across 2 other short term sites that weren't mine
but if baiting is such a serious risk, perhaps it would be better to let some winter weary animals die, rather than risk spreading disease around? which is the lesser evil for the long term health?
CWD was introducted to Canada by importing infected elk to SK farms and then spread to the wild in late 90's/early 2000's
certainly regulations should change once CWD is found, we are seeing that in other jurisdictions now....but right now we are discussing hypothetical what if's...it will be hunters bringing an infected carcass across the border, or agriculture industry that brings CWD to BC...IMO that's where today's prevention and discussing should be focused
Unfortunately, the rifles are getting lighter because we are getting heavier and more unfit as a society. This is the key to the mainstream acceptance of the short magnums. - Nathan Foster
