It’s time to get my head out of the sand and learn about CWD and what I can do about it.
Cait Nelson joins me on the podcast to discuss the critical issue of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) affecting wildlife, particularly in British Columbia. Cait, a Wildlife Health Biologist, explains the nature of CWD, its transmission, and the implications for the hunting community.
