| chronic wasting disease |
The latest in a family of fatal brain diseases that also has struck sheep, mink, cattle and humans - and appears to have the ability to infect other animals. This disease affects deer and elk, causing weight loss, listlessness and decreased interaction with other animals. The disease, known by the acronym CWD, first was recognized in the late 1960s in Colorado, and has been endemic in portions of that state and Wyoming for years. It was first discovered in Wisconsin in February.
