Outdoornews December 15, 2020 (Photo by Bob “Greenie” Grewell) COLUMBUS, Ohio – Biologists have said for years that it’s just a matter of time before Ohio sees its first case of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in the wild white-tailed deer herd. That time has come. The Ohio DNR (ODNR) Division of Wildlife has identified a positive test for CWD in a wild Ohio white-tailed deer in Wyandot County. The Division of Wildlife is gathering additional details about the adult male deer taken by a hunter on private property. Tissue samples were submitted for testing by a taxidermist and the positive test was identified after results were obtained on Dec. 10.
