"We have 51 drop-off locations scattered across the state." "As we evaluate year after year, we're looking for the most efficient method of sampling," McKinley said. Those wanting to have their deer tested may deposit the heads with six inches of neck attached in freezers provided by the agency. The Deer Hunter is a 1978 American epic war drama film co-written and directed by Michael Cimino about a trio of Russian-American steelworkers whose lives were changed forever after fighting in the Vietnam War. McKinley noted that unlike in years past, there are no days when it is mandatory for hunters to submit tissue samples from deer they have harvested because of low participation. "This year three of the four positives have been harvested using those tags.
"Last year those tags resulted in one-third of the positives detected in the state," McKinley said. McKinley said the additional harvest in those areas will help reduce transmission of the disease by removing more infected deer. Hunters who receive tags may hunt with a weapon of choice during deer season. 'You don't just sneak up on a whitetail': Epic spot-and-stalk hunt ends with trophy deer Reducing CWD transmission, no mandatory sampling daysĪlso, hunters within three miles of a location where CWD has been detected may apply for tags allowing them to harvest more deer than the statewide bag limit allows. The deer head must be delivered to the participating taxidermist within five days of receiving the sample number. This sample number must accompany the deer head while in transport and be available for inspection by law enforcement upon request. A CWD sample number must be obtained from the participating taxidermist prior to transporting the deer head outside of the MDWFP-defined CWD management zone.
