Description

This week on the show we update the listeners on the status of the new CWD surveillance area in North Central Ohio.  The disease surveillance area is made up of Wyandot county as well as portions of Hardin and Marion counties.  This new area was created due to 2 wild deer that were harvested and tested positive for CWD during the 2020/2021 whitetail deer season.  We also discuss the ending of the previous deer surveillance area in Holmes and Tuscarawas counties due to no additional positive tests during the 3 year surveillance period.  Lastly, we discuss some of our personal thoughts on what this means for the future of hunting in Ohio if CWD begins to spread throughout the wild whitetail deer population.   Photo Credit:  Ohio Division of Wildlife
