Ep 163: CWD in PA

In this episode Jason talks with Jeannine Fleegle and Andrea Korman of the Pennsylvania Game Commission. Jeannine is a wildlife biologist working specifically with deer and elk and Andrea is the CWD section Supervisor. During the conversation, Jeannine and Andrea describe Chronic Wasting Disease, how it is transferred, and what species it can affect. They also detail why CWD is such a concern, what the PGC is doing to slow the spread, and how testing deer works for both the agency and hunters. They also touch on advice for consuming CWD positive meat and why hunters need to do their part.
