ST. PAUL, Minn. – Chronic wasting disease has been detected in a quarantined farm in Crow Wing County.
Minnesota Board of Animal Health Investigators have been monitoring the farm since December 2016 when two white-tailed deer tested positive for the disease.
The Department of Natural Resources is currently in the second year of sampling wild deer for CWD in Crow Wing County as a result of the farm's earlier infection. The disease has not been found since the DNR began its surveillance in Crow Wing County in 2017.
Assistant Director Dr. Linda Glaser says the biggest change will follow this lead.
