Uraine and other scents or attachtants where not banned for hunting use and sale of Estreus WAS allowed. (like Walmart and local Gun/Bow shops etc.)
Just can't use it here.
Half ***** attempt to address the situation.
That's the bad news.
Good news is states like Vermont, Ohio, Penns. who have had sever CWD impact in the last 5 years are now making a come back with deer populations.
States like Maryland and Florida and Texas are now the new hot spots for CWD and are seeing devistating losses.
So even if there is no cure, it does seem it spreads and then it runs it coarse.
It's possible it's a time factor with this thing. You can't kill it but it will die or loose the effect there of over time.
If the above is not true then the states of VT. and Oh. and PA. should not have recovered from CWD like they did in the last 5 years.
But they did with no help from humans.
Sometimes no help is the best help of all.
Leave it alone.

Maybe there is CWD because humans have allowed too much game to occupy the land that is left for them. Maybe nature is taking action because we have not issued enough supplemental tags or doe draws or because some hunters refuse to cull excess bucks while waiting for the trophy of a lifetime.
