Much of the information given in this article is contrary to that given by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and the Health Departments of many states who have been dealing with CWD for many years.
I suspect the fact he is in the business of selling deer attractants, etc. is affecting his answers and opinions.
Bottom Line - All Health Departments that I am aware of warn against consuming the meat of infected animals and it is an accepted fact that regardless of how well you cook the meat the CWD prions will be unaffected.
At a recent information session on CWD I believe the temperature of 900C was provided as the only way the CWD prions could be destroyed.

thank you for that I would not consume any meat that had either chronic wasting or mad cow. I wonder what happened back 30 years ago we never had to worry about this.
In a study at Yale University when people diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease were examined after death it was found that 13 per cent of the Alzheimers patients had Mad Cow Disease (CJD).
We need a very drastic cull of deer population in eastern Alberta to slow spread of CWD westward. GOA were doing good job couple years ago until bleeding hearts decided it was to cruel. Every year it migrates one WMU westward, now near Ft Sask. and Camrose.
Alberta Agriculture knows how to deal with major anthrax or other disease spread, kill the entire herd.

According to the Alberta Government Chronic Wasting Disease was discovered in Whitetailed Deer and Elk on game farms north of Edmonton in 2002.
