    Chronic Wasting Disease testing finds more than 500 deer clean

    by Howard Meyerson | The Grand Rapids Press

    Friday September 26, 2008, 11:54 PM

    More than 500 wild deer tested for Chronic Wasting Disease in the past two weeks, including 127 from Kent County, have tested free of the fatal disease, state officials said Friday.

    These results are the first from an aggressive CWD testing program put in place earlier this month by the state Department of Natural Resources. Testing began after an Algoma Township breeding farm deer was found infected with the disease. Several thousand Michigan whitetail deer are to be tested this fall as part of a statewide effort to determine whether the disease has spread into the wild deer herd.

    “It’s good that these deer are testing negative,” DNR spokeswoman Mary Dettloff said. “But we’re not prepared to say it’s an isolated event. What this is doing is deepening the mystery surrounding how the first deer got infected.”

    CWD is a disease that can be transmitted between animals or from food contaminated by the saliva or feces of an infected deer. Agriculture officials, to date, have not discovered any other infected deer on captive breeding farms, including those who did business with farm where the infected deer was found.

    DNR and Michigan Department of Agriculture officials reached out Friday to state officials in other parts of the U.S. where CWD occurs, hoping to gather additional information that might help shed light on the route of infection, according to Dettloff.

    “I don’t know that we are at a dead end as much as we are picking other’s brains to see if there is something we are overlooking,” Detloff said.

    Critics of the state’s decisions to quarantine deer farms following discovery of the disease say the state overreacted and that false-positives are not unheard of with CWD testing.

    But Dettloff said the infected deer was tested three times before any decisions were made. It was tested twice at a Michigan State University laboratory before being sent to the National Veterinarian Services Laboratory for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Ames Iowa.

    “The folks in their lab said it was ‘textbook,’” Dettloff said.

    The DNR has tested 753 wild deer from around the state, as of Friday, according to Dettloff. Negative results were found in 517 deer. Agency officials were waiting for the results of another 236 deer.

    Kent County deer are also showing up free of the disease so far. Of 216 processed for testing, 162 tested negative. Results for 54 are still pending.

    Within CWD surveillance zone that includes, Tyrone, Solon, Nelson, Sparta, Algoma, Courtland, Alpine, Plainfield and Cannon townships, 147 deer have been taken for testing. Of those 127 tested negative. Results are still pending on 20 other deer.

    Dettloff said 200 more Southwest Michigan deer were delivered to the MSU laboratory Friday for testing.
