CWD Outbreak: Wisconsin Deer Farm Depopulated and Cases Confirmed
TL;DR Summary
A deer farm in Dodge County, Wisconsin, has depopulated over 170 animals after 23 tested positive for chronic wasting disease (CWD), bringing the total number of positive cases to 26. The farm was quarantined in May after a 9-year-old doe tested positive for CWD, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture depopulated the herd. The farm owner will receive federal indemnity, and the farm will be prohibited from holding deer for five years, required to maintain fences, and subject to routine inspections. CWD is a fatal neurological disease that affects deer, elk, and moose.
