I know not many here hunt the mid west but passing the information on so everyone stays safe...

Thanks for sharing. I hunt the Alcona/Alpena county area frequently. One of the infected herds actually borders the private land that I’ve hunted every year. We’ve never shot an infected deer, but we certainly keep an eye out for it. The DNR is all over it up there and have done a decent enough job to contain it.
