    You gamble… I stopped hunting and eating deer because of it. It’s not worth the risk to me.

      That’s crazy. I grew up eating venison all the time. Maybe it wasn’t as widespread back then. Now I’m happily vegetarian.

        It wasn’t at all. Now there are states and counties in some states with deer populations showing like 1 in 4 or even 50%+ of the entire population having CWD. I know the northern states, those populations are in real bad shape now.
