I don't think its baiting if you don't hunt or its so close to a dwelling. At least that is the way I took it in the CWD containment zone.

I just find it funny that according to MDC feeding of deer and eating from concentrated areas promotes the spread of CWD but all the homeowners along the lake and in residential neighborhoods get a pass because they are X number of feet from a house. Like it actually makes a difference how many feet you are from a house on if CWD gets spread but if your a farmer with 1000 acres and you bait then your suddenly spreading it. Quite the double standard. Falls for not just corn but also mineral as well. I cant count the numbers of deer I see by the mineral feeder for the cattle or in the feed pen looking for leftovers. ehhh whatever. I say feed away and shoot them all doesn't matter to me.
oneshot Posted January 1, 2020 Author Posted January 1, 2020 Deer lick each other all the time. What I find crazy with CWD is MDC and others say kill them before they get it and die. LOL Okay!! Oh don’t kill Feral Hogs the Government can do a better job. oneshot
MOPanfisher Posted January 1, 2020 Posted January 1, 2020 If you sign an agreement MDC will happily shoot your deer. Remember that culling and reducing the number of deer in a affected area is the only tool they have, even they don't like it but it is the only tool in the box and they don't want to do nothing. In the long run I seriously doubt that culling will have much of an affect due to the nature/biology of the disease. The deer will have to develop some sort of natural immunity.
