For the sixth podcast I spoke to Tim Van Deelan, he is a Professor of Wildlife Ecology at the University of Wisconsin - Madison and fellow white tail hunter. I know chronic wasting disease is not really turkey related. However, being from Michigan it is important to me that we talk about it. Especially with the bait ban being in effect this season. We talk about why there is a bait ban, what CWD is and what hunters can do to help!
