Ranchers, outfitters, hunters. It seems that the insurance companies are making it tough to get coverage. We have had a policy for 23 years with zero claims. We pay on time and cause no issues.
I received a quote that’s stupid high and at the end of the day I doubt the company would actually cover us if we ever needed it.
Anybody have ideas or insight to a company that might cover all of us.
I’m thinking that maybe we need to start our own deal like meda share. You have members and they share the claims.
Let me know what you guys think or if you know a company out there that can help?

This is absolutely ridiculous. They killed all those deer for absolutely no reason.
KERR COUNTY – A suspected case of chronic wasting disease at a Texas Parks and Wildlife research facility in Kerr County turned out to be a false alarm.
TPWD officials on Friday said a post-mortem test conducted by the National Veterinary Service Laboratories showed no chronic wasting disease in a 14-month-old buck that was suspected of having the disease. The suspected case led to all of the deer at the facility being euthanized, ending 50 years of white-tail deer research there.
The suspected case was found after the October testing of all captive white-tailed deer as part of the agency’s ongoing research. The initial sample was processed at the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Lab which was helping the Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Lab conduct tests in a timely manner. The lab identified one sample as “suspect positive” and sent the sample to NVSL for confirmation.
TPWD called it an “extremely rare occurrence” that the NVSL results differed from initial testing.
“While TPWD staff is disappointed in abruptly ending use of the research herd, the department knew it was essential to immediately eliminate the likelihood of amplifying the disease threat within the captive facility,” said Wildlife Division Director John Silovsky. “Additionally, it also reduces the risk of potentially transmitting CWD to the surrounding WMA property and neighboring landowners. Early detection and containment of the disease are key components of CWD management.”
The WMA will also continue mandatory testing of all hunter-harvested deer on the property.
According to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal neurological disease found in certain deer and other members of the deer family. It is a slow and progressive disease that may not produce visible signs for years after infection. The department adds that animals with CWD may show signs of progressive weight loss, stumbling, tremors, a lack of coordination, dropping ears and excessive thirst. Texas Parks and Wildlife said that early detection and proactive monitoring can reduce the spread of the disease.
Researchers have been investigating CWD at its Kerr County facility since 2002 and intensified its research after receiving conflicting results for CWD in a female deer that was euthanized last January.
In a press release, Texas Parks and Wildlife said that the first case of CWD was discovered in a free-range mule deer in the Hueco mountains near the Texas-New Mexico border in 2012. The disease has since been detected in captive and free-range deer in Texas.
