(Wisconsin Ag Connection) The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is once again asking hunters to utilize the Chronic Wasting Disease self-service kiosks and carcass disposal dumpsters to help monitor and slow the spread of CWD.

According to the Wisconsin Ag Connection, this year, the agency is looking for more volunteers to help grow the programs, bringing convenient CWD testing and proper carcass disposal options to even more hunters in Wisconsin.

The agency says proper disposal of deer carcass waste is a major factor in containing the spread of CWD. CWD is a contagious neurological disease of deer, elk moose and reindeer that is caused by an abnormal protein called a prion.
