    Covid found in up to 40% of US deer

    If someone already posted this I apologize in advance. Now if this data is true or not I do not know but I sent this article to a friend to have it verified. Curious to see if this will be problematic for the hunting community. Granted, this is in the NY Post..

    Can't wait to see them try to mask up a deer.

      PETA apologists trying to keep hunters from killing deer. If my wife hears about this I will probably have to get a divorce because she will make me move out so that she doesn't get it.

        What a perfect excuse to kill that cull buck that’s not a cull buck or that nice young buck. I hada shoot him so he couldn’t spread covid to the rest of the deer.

            Thing is:

            If you go looking for something; you’re going to find a ton more occurrences.

            Simple.

                      Does that mean those of us that eat deer will have better immunity to it? That would be nice huh.

                        Anti-hunters will say 2021-22 hunting season needs to be canceled due to deer populations not be able to handle the emotional toll and losses from Covid.

                          Should be a lot easier to kill them when they have no sense of smell.

                            Says they tested 385 deer. Very small sample. Were these captive deer? No specific link to the supposed USDA study. I doubt that 40% of the human population in US has naturally acquired antibodies. Sounds like a bunch of hogwash.
