Then you have been spreading a bunch of misinformation concerning Tensas parish. Why didn't you bring up they had found CWD in Warren County in Dec of 2021? A year earlier than they found any in Tensas parish? Why don't you admit you are wrong? Quit running from accountability and confirm that you don't know what the hell you are talking about. I sure hope you are getting every deer you kill tested....


quote:

Ever wonder why they fail to regulate deer farms with cwd, or fail to fine clubs/owners that bought farm raised deer to release onto their lands along the MS river. Now those deer have spread cwd into MS and as far westward in La to caldwell parish.


quote:

I'm a bit confused. Seeing that the MS river if east of Caldwell Parish, shouldn't cwd would spreading westward. Seems to me these issues should be addressed by the LDWF and not the Dept. of Agriculture as well.


quote:

The LDWF expanded the cwd zone westward to caldwell parish. Cwd originated in Tensas parish. Winter Quarters. It has spread east to into Ms and westard to franklin parish thus far.

Yet Mike Strain hasn't said a word or spoken publicly regarding his departments failures.

Strain was a NO SHOW at the CWD meeting in Grayson, La.

Funny thing is not that many were next door in Madison parish. WQ brought that disease in. May not have been intentional but it happened. Where did those cwd infected deer come from? Which deer farm? Whose deer farm?

Since you know so much about Adams county Mississippi, fill me in on the CWD deer found there? How about you fill us in on the 18 counties in Mississippi that have had recorded cases? How about the 2012 case of CWD found in Adams county? Tell us about that? Did that Adams county CWD case in 2012 come from WQ too? Seriously, tell us more about your theory?

Fill me in on how cwd crossed the river and nearly all cases were found on Winter Quarters. Not near as many as in East carrolll with a Ms cwd area straight across the river. All those cwd infected deer from Ms just randomly chose to swim across to WQ's. Take your shite someplace else.

I guess I will have to break it down to you because it's obvious that your aren't the sharpest tool in the shed. If you volunteer to test for it more, you will find more cases. If you aren't looking for it as much you won't find it as much. The last time I checked, Louisiana state officials can't legally go to a property and check for CWD. It's a volunteer program buddy. Do you understand what that means? What that means, is that if WQ didn't agree to have so many samples taken no one would know how many cases they had confirmed. Maybe you should stick to fishing, this deer stuff is too complicated for you.

Listen dipshite. Since 2021 40 deer have tested positive for cwd in Louisiana. 39 in Tensas and 1 just this year in Catahoula. 97.5 % of cwd cases in Louisiana are in Tensas parish alone. WQ's. Again what made all those deer from MS choose WQ's to swim towards. That is your allegation. Every Ms cwd infected deer came to Tensas parish, and exited the river at WQ's. Must be some strong deer attractant at WQ for all those 40 cwd infected deer to only head there.

I’m no biologist or expert, but does common sense not suggest that this is a huge part of problem? Large clubs with a lot of money, buy up huge tracts of land, put out thousands of tons of feed, plant massive food plots, which drastically increase the deer density. Then, there are very few hunters who have the ability to hunt these tracts. Those hunters don’t care to shoot does or small bucks, and only want the “trophy” deer. They’re fine going up once or twice/year and shooting one trophy, creating a population crisis.

Like most issues in the world, there’s not one person or one event to point the finger at. It has many causes. Everyone wants to point the finger at someone else while ignoring their culpability.

The levee clubs have been in place for a half century or more, each with land holdings ranging from 2,500 acres to 10,000 or more. In addition, they've been dumping massive amounts of corn and feed on the ground for probably 40 years now.

The lack of desire to properly control their herds is an absolute problem. As the cost of a share in these places goes up, the number of members decreases, playing a role in the inability to police the herd.

My friend who managed WQ's for years tried telling them what needed to be done in order to keep numbers down. It fell on deaf ears.

I go to one nearly every year, and it's really not like that. They have not been able to feed in a while. They have rules in place to force the taking of does. Seems like the last two major floods also reduced numbers. We do not see huge numbers of deer per hunt, and the last two season I went on rut hunts, I never got a shot at a doe.

You are dumb as dirt huh? You thought CWD went from LA to MS. You were too dumb to know Miss has had a big problem with CWD. Are you gonna ever admit you were wrong? They know there are more CWD in Louisiana that is why they are moving the boundaries. They can only test what is brought to them. Your logic is that of a 5 year old. How many CWD samples have they analyzed in Madison or East Carrol? How many in Tensas? You don't know do you?

FYI - The levee clubs have been around for much longer than that. Just 60 years ago the deer in Louisiana and other places around the South were pretty much wiped out (that is why the management practice back then was to not shoot does at all). They actually had special doe days when you could shoot a doe. Deer numbers along the Miss River have always been high. However, it might be that with all the WRP and CRP that is becoming mature that the deer don't have as many places to migrate to as those areas numbers are building. This would likely cause a boomerang situation that makes it even worse.

Enjoy your hunting season at WQ. Be sure you shoot all the does the LDWF has tasked your club with harvesting. Need to remove 400 deer of the estimated 800 herd total they said. If you had followed your own biologists recommendations regarding does before he up and quit, the cwd problem might not be so bad for our state. Hope your club bowhunters started on those 400 deer today. 4 month season = 100 per month, or 3.3 avg harvested per day.

Happy Hunting. We'll see how much of a Hitman you are this season with 400 tags to fill.

You are a complete idiot. I'm not a member of WQ. I just have a brain dumbass. Go complain somewhere else. You say you hunt in Mississippi and they have a worse problem than LA does and you bitch about LA. Maybe you should live where you hunt and gripe over there.

Agreed. I grew up hunting the clubs on the eastern bank of the Tensas before they were all cut down. Then we moved over to Buckhorn for many years. We always had deer and turkey, even when the rest of the state didn't
