I have to ask, how do you know so much about this program? I haven't seen too much about it.

Fish and Wildlife have placed orange freezers at specific locations around the province where you can drop off your deer, moose or elk head(s) for CWD testing. The locations of these freezers can be found here:

Heads are collected from these freezers every couple of days by Fish and Wildlife Staff who then submit them directly to the CWD testing laboratory in Edmonton.
Hunters can also submit their deer, moose or elk head(s) at any local fish and wildlife office.
I currently work for the Alberta Wildlife Disease Unit. Our website is an excellent source for information regarding CWD in Alberta.
