deadly venison

[cowboydoc]

Any of you guys see the article in Field and Stream about venison causing CJD, a form of mad cow disease? If you contract it from eating deer or elk it is certain death with no treatment. You can read the article at http://www.fieldandstream.com/sportsmansissues/fsdeadlyvension.html

I haven't heard those facts yet,
I heard CJD started in England and the illness made its way to the southwest.

I understand there is no cure for its sort of a protein problem...NBC News said.

Makes one wonder how long has the goverment known about CJD.

I hadn't seen the Field & Stream article, but did see another short news story about it in the local newspaper last week.
