Escape to the Forest Webinar Series - Chronic Wasting Disease in Ohio’s Deer Herd: Three Years of Intense Monitoring
In 2020, chronic wasting disease (CWD) was detected for the first time in Ohio just north of Killdeer Plains in Wyandot County. Join ODNR Division of Wildlife's Clint McCoy, as he covers several aspects of CWD: a basic overview of the disease, history of positive cases in OH, DOW’s response to positive detections, what to know if hunting in a known CWD area, and the importance of hunter harvest in slowing the spread.
