Does anyone monitor where these cases are found? I understand it is harmful to the entire deer population. I have a white-tail deer in my back yard that has all the symptoms of CWD.

After he was down, I found he had a real scaley fur on his face making him appear years older than he was (white scaley flakes on his brown face making it look white). The buck also had five or six 4 inch dark brown outlined cicles on his sides. His muscle tone looked poor, so I thought he was diseased and did not want this spread to other deer. After aging his lower jaw, I discovered the deer was 3 1/2 years old. Have you heard other stories like this? Is it something to be worried about?
