Minnesota’s CWD Response Plan:

“unlimited free deer tags for landowners, additional public hunts and possibly the use of privately contracted sharpshooters, according to the Department of Natural Resources.“

Reduce deer density as fast possible to prevent CWS from spreading.

That what they did in Wisconsin and the effect was dramatic, I know guys that were shooting 15-20 bucks a yr. There has to be a better way to deal with it than mass slaughter.

Far, far more deer will die from the G&Fs reaction to CWD than from the disease itself. The hunting in NW Arkansas is the best that it has ever been and CWD has been there since they brought elk in 20+ years ago.

Arkansas outlawed supplemental feeding in the CWD zone, but still allows baiting. Meaning that you can only have feed out from 9/1 - 12/31
