Jim Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 I ran across this and thought that the hunters out there would be interested. Heads up. http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/104980312150700.xml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairweather Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Interesting article. I've been severely reducing my beef consumption the past couple years with the goal of weaning myself from it completely. I'm down to about one serving per week or less. The Mad Cow scare was a big factor in this decision. I rarely eat wild game, but anecdotal connections like this sure make me wonder.

Greg_W Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 I read that article and there is really no substance there; nothing definitive. Until CWD cases start showing up in my hunt unit, I'll be eating elk with a big old smile on my face and a beer in my hand. Raise your own beef.

lummox Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 the only good thing i got out a that article was a new route name "spongiform'. anybody else ever notice that elk are dummer an shit around trucks on the road? a deer will run off the road, but a elk will run across the road. unpredictable, they are.

(when monkey's fly outa my butt) Sorry if I was vague, but it wasn't an anti-meat or anti-hunter post, just some information for those that hunt. I used to hunt but don't now, for no particular reason. If you hunt you would be wise to follow some of the recent guidlines for keeping nerve tissue (specifically brain and spinal cord) away from the meat. Most of the time hunters skilled in dressing do this anyway, but Montana and Wyoming game departments have put out special guidlines just in case. Haven't seen such in WA or OR.
