NDGF Help Center FAQ

Is there a treatment for infected deer and elk?

There is currently no effective treatment or vaccine for a cervid that has CWD. An animal displaying clinical signs consistent with CWD should be euthanized. Removing infected animals will help prevent spread of disease or infection.
