NO CWD in Elk, Still Waiting on Deer

0 comments | Friday, March 25, 2005

After examining samples from hunter-killed elk during the state’s 2004 hunting season, Pennsylvania Game Commission Executive Director Vern Ross reports no sign of chronic wasting disease. Samples were collected from 32 of the 34 elk killed in the 2004 season. Also, samples were taken from more than 3,600 randomly selected hunter-killed deer from the two-week rifle deer season. The Game Commission still is awaiting the results of the deer samples collected during the 2004 seasons. In 2003, the agency collected samples from more than 2,000 hunter-killed deer, and all results came back negative for CWD. No confirmed or suspected cases of CWD have currently been reported in Pa.
