Got a call today from TPWD, I’ve got a mule deer that tested early positive for CWD. I’m soon to turn into a zombie because I have already been eating it. They advised not to consume any of the meat...too late! They want to come confiscate what meat is left once they get more results back from another lab.

You’d better hide, they are gonna try to take your guns too so you can’t kill anymore deer that may be carrying cwd.

That's just a front. Their answer around these parts was total herd annihilation. Run Jskin Run!

Since you don't get your own meat back from the processor everyone in the state of Texas is ordered to turn over all meat...

That sucks man.

I don't think humans can get CWD. However, it would be safer not to take the chance. I don't think you are at a risk of getting sick. After knowing the animal is infected, it would be a challenge to enjoy the meat.

We had all five of ours from Matador WMA this year tested, and they all came back negative.

Started foaming at the mouth a little tonight with an occasional blank stare! Should I be concerned?

I can't help but think all this CWD is manufactured by the politically motivated and well funded PETA types to generate fear in the hunting culture.
Seems like the top brass in the TPWD have already been taken over, and it didn't just happen overnight.
Eat the darned meat!....Too many other things out there that are going to kill a person faster than this fear mongering hoax.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

Flounder will be breaching your door any minute. You should probably head to your safe room.

Hopefully they don't corral your entire zip code and put y'all down.

Not true. I knew Beth Williams personally, she identified the disease first in Colorado. She was far, far from a PETA person type. She was an avid hunter and a great scientist.
I too would not worry too much about the positive. I would also ask what law allows them to confiscate your meat?
