Chronic Wasting Disease is a fatal neurological disease affecting members of the deer family. If left unmanaged, CWD can have catastrophic, long-term impacts on Texas deer.

If you’re deer hunting in Texas, test your harvest for CWD. It’s mandatory in CWD zones and voluntary elsewhere. With your participation, biologists can gather statewide data to aid in CWD management strategies to reduce the risk of CWD spread.
