We haven't seen Chronic wasting disease hit the shore yet.

Maryland Deer Test Negative for CWD Annapolis, Maryland- Recent laboratory tests conducted by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Wildlife & Heritage Service confirm there is no evidence of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in Maryland. Tissue samples collected from 1,106 deer during the 2009-2010 Maryland deer hunting seasons revealed no signs of the disease. Additional samples collected from sick or injured deer also tested negative for CWD. Over 6,700 Maryland deer have been tested and confirmed as CWD-free since 2002.“CWD surveillance remains an agency priority and is essential to maintaining a healthy deer herd,” said George Timko, DNR’s Assistant Deer Project Leader. “DNR biologists and technicians will continue to collect and test tissue samples from hunter-harvested deer as well as from sick and injured deer.”
