Welcome to the Farmed Cervid Biosecurity against Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) website.
Our mission is to provide information to cervid producers to:
- Better understand their operation’s risk of becoming infected with CWD and
- Help them develop a biosecurity plan to reduce the risk of CWD in their farmed cervids.
