Field Notes: Project Updates on the Southwest Wisconsin CWD, Deer & Predator Study

We’ve wrapped up another adult deer capture season, and fawn collaring is almost here.

In this issue, we look at our deer handling process and how our partners help make this study possible.

Then we take another look back at year one data, this timedigging into harvest rates.

And finally, our field crew gives an update on our adult deer capture results for 2018.

There's a Deer in the Net! Now What? [Video]

Our top priority is the health and safety of the deer and our crew. We’re also out to gather high-quality data. Find out how we handle deer, collar them and take CWD samples.

 

Strong Partnerships Make Study Possible

What happens to CWD samples once they leave the field? And how do we measure survival rates? Find out how our partnerships make the huge size and scope of this project possible.

First Look at Year One Harvest Rates

Field Crew Wraps Up Second Adult Capture Season [Video]

The Southwest Wisconsin CWD, Deer and Predator Study is the largest deer research project ever undertaken in Wisconsin. It stems from the Governor's Chronic Wasting Disease Initiative. Visit our website to learn more about the study's scope and design.
