PRO/AH/EDR> Chronic wasting disease – North America (06): USA (TX) cervid, restrictions

Chronic Wasting Disease — United States
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) has issued an emergency order to impose additional movement and testing restrictions on deer breeding facilities affiliated with 6 facilities where chronic wasting disease (CWD) has been positively detected. Existing rules already restrict the movement of deer from 264 sites in 95 counties directly linked to these CWD-positive facilities, but further measures are necessary given the gravity of this situation.
