2025 EHD?

[giles]

Some sort of effort would be nice.

They do make an effort..... EVERY TIME THEY RUN TO THE BANK WITH YOUR MONEY.... Most states could give a shit about what the sportsman thinks... All they care about is the insurance companies and the farmers... Jerseys no different... $$$$$ is what it's all about...

Does anyone have any solid data on how many of our 88 counties have gotten hit really hard as compared to the counties that haven’t had any cases or been hit very little over the past two decades till present? We’ve all been impacted by drought/dry spells and lots of rain through out the spring and summer months so why are the southern counties mostly affected? Don’t say high densities cuz back in the day we had tons more deer than we do now and no one was smelling death like this and finding hundreds of deer in a rather small area back then. It appears EHD is here to stay and it’s the southern counties mostly effected the past several years it seems.

Does our lack of hard frosts in the last ten years make it more prevalent? Judging from maps and high mortality rates the counties being affected are near to the rivers and tributaries that experience a drastic water level decline during drought? Southern Michigan gets hammered pretty frequently the only southern Ohio issue has to be ruled out. I still 100percent think it's natures population control. It took less than a humans lifetime to disperse deer throughout the state of Ohio into a huge deer density. It sucks we don't handle the resource better.
