Alberta chronic wasting disease management : program review panel report, peer review

Description

This report summarizes the work of an Alberta Chronic Wasting Disease Management Program Review Panel. The Panel was convened in Fall 2007 to review Alberta's past and current CWD surveillance and response strategies and efforts for wild deer and to provide recommendations to improve ongoing provincial wild deer CWD management. Based on whirtten and verbal information shared by the Fish and Wildlife Division of Alberta SRD, the Panel considered the province's CWD surveillance efforts since surveillance was initiated and then expanded when CWD was documented in wild deer in Saskatchewan in 2001 and in two Albertan cervid farms in 2002, as well as provincial CWD control efforts that began in response to the first identification of CWD in a wild Alberta deer in 2005.
