    CWD Confirmed in California Deer Population

    With sheep there was 2 different kinds of scrapie, "classical" and "atypical". The atypical is a sporadic or spontaneous form of this disease. Meaning there is no infection source (that we know of) so to speak, it just sporadically appears in the sheep population. Atypical scrapie also...

    CWD Confirmed in California Deer Population

    It would not surprise me to learn that there were some random sporadic cases that pop up in cervid species here and there. But keep in mind that there has not been a single sporadic case found in deer or elk to date. These cases in California are the first found in over 20 years of testing.

    Safari Club International supports WEST Act to withdraw Public land rule

    Based on the contacts I've made, SCI hasn't even engaged with the BLM on that issue. It's almost as if they are just following the bill sponsor's lead for political expediency or for other political motivations. I can't find any validity to Congressmen Curtis's sentiment that this rule will...

    Safari Club International supports WEST Act to withdraw Public land rule

    Wanted to get this out there for discussion as SCI just sent out an action alert for this and I find this to be an interesting dynamic within the conservation world. SCI is supporting "SUPPORT H.R. 3397: The Western Economic Security Today (WEST) Act withdraws the recently announced final...

    @Treeshark I’ll make this easier. Put a red dot on where 30% is for the year 2023 on these IL charts. Ya know just for comparisons sake….ill try and leave enough room at the top for you (cause they won’t fit on the graphs you shared). 30% . . . . . . . . . 20% . . . . . . . . . 10%

    I’m asking you to make the same comparison for the recent data and your response is that I’m butthurt? I guess that must mean that a comparison of the more recent data between the two shows a significant difference in the results of management activities. Just as the ten yr old study I...

    Maybe, but based on what I’ve seen on HT, thats probably a stretch. Ya know, support for landowner handouts and other proclivities kind of makes me think there’s some fundamental differences that will manifest themselves in more areas than not. But heck, I’m still waiting for you to share the...

    The “CWD is a conspiracy” and the “I found a YouTube video proving all the scientists wrong” crowd has a lot of feels, and apparently I hurt every single one of em.

    I’m sure the scientific community values your opinion as much as you do.

    Culling can be a superior tool to not culling. As I stated in an earlier post, that’s not 100% guaranteed. There are variables to consider. Culling efforts that were done in Sask 20 years ago were far less effective than culling efforts being done right now. Spatiotemporal analysis and...

    I thought there was value in showing a comparison. Simply quoting 2023 Illinois data did not provide a sufficient comparison between potential results of culling and not culling. Context matters. Luckily there was published research that I was familiar with that did exactly that. A study...

    Because that’s when the study that I linked was done that compared early differences in prevalence rates in areas of culling and without/discontinued. A simple comparison of current prevalence rates in each state only further confirms this. As the graphic you share conveniently does for me.

    You’re kidding right? Your graphic shows the same prevalence that area in Wisconsin had over 12 years ago. See the graphic I shared above. It took Illinois 10-12 years longer to get to that same prevalence rate by comparison. How does that not prove my point and confirm exactly what the...
