Two cases have been found in two different deer in New York. Both deer lived on a fenced in private hunting land.

Man I hope those deer never came into contact thru the small holes in the fence with wild deer, if that happened or would happen we can have a problem like Wisconsin did, and who knows they way the deer travel they may even make here to New Jersey, and we don't need that crap!!

Oh man... don't tell me that. [down]

Could you post up where you saw/heard this. I want to read up on it. Thanks.

Deer can jump over 8 ft fences.

where in NY? I'll keep a eye out for them CWD deer and they will be the first to go.

I was hoping to find out if the herd was transfered from out west (or came into contact with such a deer). If it occured naturally (although I can't imagine why) it doesn't bode too well for the eastern deer herds... espcially NJ... the close proximaty of the deer, the size of the herd, it will probably spread like wildfire.

That is NOT GOOD![down][sad] Like FJ40 said it would spread quick in Jersey deer....

 

[tommy]

is that also called blue tong..

No, blue tongue is cause by gnats, its viral code is EHD. We had that here in 1999/00 a bad drought year. Place a map of Wisconsin over the map of NY, NJ and PA. Deer have no clue about borders. I don't care who you are fenced in property is not hunting regardless of the size. I have worked and spent time at shooting preserves and to watch a wealthy man shoot mallards out of a crate by the dozens, doesn't make him a waterfowl hunter. Fair chase! All the way.
