State officials say they are seeing an increase in the number of chronic wasting disease in the deer population.
The Pennsylvania Game Commission said they have been taken samples of nearly 10,000 deer from across the state over the last year.
Since that time, they have identified more than 400 positive cases of CWD—with more than half of those harvested by hunters.
The Game Commission says keeping surveillance on CWD cases is a top priority. CWD is a fatal neurological disease in deer and elk.
