    Wildlife Council Meeting: 9/17 @ 4:30P - District 4 HQs

    Yep that’s exactly what I have been seeing too. Actually read that if a cow is early in its pregnancy and gets the virus the calf can be born a life time carrier of ehd. There might be a very small portion of the midge larva that are born with it as well but there hasn’t been significant data to...

    2025 EHD?

    If I remember right from what I have read, 20% of deer can or will survive the illness. The mothers can pass along some level of immunity to their fawns the next spring. But it only lasts one year. Also if a different variant of ehd hits, the immunity may not help.

    2025 EHD?

    That was the sign last year when it started hitting. I started getting a ton of buzzards on camera
