BC Chronic Wasting Disease Surveillance and Testing (disponible en anglais seulement)
The Chief Veterinary Officer has issued General Order CWD2024-001 in response to the detection of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) in B.C. The order applies to the boundaries of the Initial Response Area, defined as Management Units 4-2, 4-3, 4-4, 4-5, and a portion of 4-22. This is south of and including Highway 3, which is situated between south of Cranbrook toward the United States border, west to the Moyie Range, and east to the Macdonald Range. The order applies to all cervids, including deer, elk, moose and caribou.
At this time, all persons who collect found dead cervids, or parts of found dead cervids in the response area must transport the collected cervids for testing and disposal to either the Central Regional Landfill - 600 Eager Hill Road or the Cranbrook Wildlife Office.
To arrange drop off at the Cranbrook Wildlife Office contact Ken Walburger, ken.walburger@gov.bc.ca or 250-420-6371 (during business hours).
