I know where you can get some "mad cow" at killer prices.

If it spreads to reindeer there will be no containing it.


Bunch of damned prancing, dancing vectors.

I'm not sure why this is just hitting the news as the first report came out several months ago. I expect to run a few deer samples this season and hopefully get some preliminary data on seropositivity rates in my area.

we talked about it a few months ago in one of the covid threads. Two points:

1) the fact covid19 spreads in so many other species (deer, dogs, cats, rodents, etc), which is pretty much unheard of, makes me give a little more credence to wuhan lab leak theories.

2) the fact covid19 spreads in so many species makes me further doubt "herd immunity" (where covid19 dies out through inability to spread) is possible.

My brother has several hog confinements and recently got a letter from the USDA saying that there was a push on to vaccinate all livestock. And here I was worried about GMOs.

I just read an article about a guy with mad cow. Apparently it rots your brain and the smell is horrible. Oh or wait are u talking about the mad cows at the mall 😁

Up on the rooftop reindeer pause
Coughing up a COVID fog.
Down through the chimney, drifts the mist,
All for the little ones' Christmas sick.

Chorus:
Ho, ho, ho! No way to know.
Ho, ho, ho! In the air like snow,
Up on the housetop, click, click, click;
Down through the chimney with a pan-dem-ic.

Three snow leopards perished...



How about animal "Dear John" letters...


Deer Covid,

It's now ewe, it's meat.
