Doesn't look too bad statewide. I hope the map doesnt doesn't light up. There were prolonged dry spells. We are really worried. If he saw that many, how many more are there? The area wasn't crawling with deer to start with. |

Decatur County is getting hit hard in my opinion!! I’ve heard of probably 12-15 dead deer being found..mostly near water. I’ve been telling people on my Decatur County hunting Facebook page to make sure they’re reporting it!!

Thanks for sharing that. Anyone have any idea why only 3 deer have been tested out of 99 being reported? Just curious. I would expect a lot more testing than just 3 out of 99. |

Read the information on the link …. DNR explain it well IMO. Bottom line is it’s not major problem as some seem to want believe.IMO |

My pal is up to 6. two bucks. A neighbor of his, whose word I trust as much as my own eyes, has found 15.
DNR told my friend they only test smoking fresh carcasses, and once confirmed they don't test many more in a given area as the cause is obvious.
That many deer is a painful loss in that area.
