[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 1694115, member: 5412"] I read that report. Its about the CWD problem they have/had in Wisconsin. To date we don't have that problem here. It also states there is not one difinitive resource that gives the answer to feed stations and their relationship to CWD in that state. Its a compilation of "theorys" about how bait stations could possibly pass the prions that contribute to CWD. I don't think we need to legislate anything in Ok that has not had an effect on our wildlife. Texas with their high fence hunting areas and feeding stations that have hundreds of deer feeding at the same place daily, doesn't have CWD problems. In reading the report, the climate, and local temps that freeze the bait stations contribute to the deer thawing the frozen food source with their breath, thereby transfering prions in their saliva and mucus. I don't know if you have been in that area, but I have, and their idea of a bait station is to dump a pickup load of sugar beets in one spot, and let the deer work their way through them during the winter. Much different than what we do here with throwing a little corn out on the ground. [/QUOTE]
