B.C. wildlife group calls for Kootenay deer cull following 3rd case of chronic wasting disease

Published Nov 21, 2024 at 9:30pm

The B.C. Wildlife Federation is calling for the province to "aggressively reduce" urban deer populations through a cull in the Kootenay region.

The call comes in response to the B.C. government announcing that chronic wasting disease (CWD) has been confirmed in yet another deer near Cranbrook, B.C.
