Summary

There is a lot of information and MIS-information out there about Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD). Some say that CWD is a real and present danger that could significantly decrease wildlife numbers; others say it is nothing to worry about. What is the truth about CWD? Where did it come from? How does it spread? How can it be contained? What is the real threat to the future of wild game populations? We answer all of these questions, and more, in our conversation with John Vore, the Game Management Bureau Chief for Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks.
