Help protect Texas deer from CWD

Texas deer need your help. Chronic Wasting Disease is a fatal neurological disease affecting members of the deer family. Hundreds of captive or free-ranging deer in 16 Texas counties have tested positive for CWD over the past decade. If left unmanaged, CWD can have catastrophic, long-term impacts on the most beloved game animal in the state. 

If you’re deer hunting in Texas, test your harvest for CWD. It’s mandatory in CWD zones and voluntary elsewhere. With your participation, biologists can gather statewide data to aid in CWD management strategies to reduce the risk of CWD spread.
