Okay, guys, y'all have used a few examples here where these different events have killed off a bunch of deer in specific localities, but where has this occurred due to CWD? So where have you observed these population declines, you know, either locally or nationally or wherever due to CWD?

I'm going to focus on, obviously, Mississippi is where I work.
26:56
I'm going to focus on here in the deep South.
26:59
I'm going to point toward a study that published last fall that was conducted in northwest Arkansas and conducted by University of Georgia.

And UGA did this study.
27:13
It gave us results.
27:15
We didn't like them.

Is it possible that it, that Mother Nature could take care of this at some point, that a deer could become resistant? You said it's, it's obviously different than EHD, so the prion's always there, but is it possible that the deer herd becomes resistant of CWD, or have we not seen that?
