There’s an interesting article, actually depressing article in the most recent Bowhunter magazine. It’s about ticks spreading CWD. Not good news.

"A new study from researchers at the University of Wisconsin–Madison finds that ticks can harbor transmissible amounts of the protein particle that causes chronic wasting disease (CWD), implicating the parasites as possible agents in the disease’s spread between deer in Wisconsin."

Lots of what if's, see link for article(not Bowhunter Mag article).
