Mad Cow Disease Rampant in Colorado,
Wyoming, and Nebraska
by William Cooper
Veritas News Service -- Exclusive, April 5, 2001 -- The cover-up of Mad Cow
Disease in the United States is beginning to self destruct. According to a
State of Colorado Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife (DOW)
letter, Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy, in Europe it is known as Mad
Cow Disease, is rampant in the mule deer, whitetail deer, and elk population
of Colorado, Wyoming, and Nebraska. The very same disease in humans is called
Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease. It is always fatal in animals and humans reducing
the brain to a spongy mass over the period of infection.
According to our confidential souces Colorado State University at Ft. Collins
has been experimenting with injecting animals, deer, pronghorn, and elk with
the disease. I can't prove it but I believe that some of the animals may have
escaped quarantine and contaminated the whole area over a long period of time.
For the last couple years hunters have been required to cut off the heads of
their deer, put a tag on them, and drop it in barrels that have been placed
at intersections of highways around the mountains. DOW tests the animals
promising to notify the hunters if the meat is infected. If the hunter
doesn't hear from DOW in six weeks, they are to assume that the meat is okay.
Some families who ate the meat after six weeks were notified after 8 weeks
that the meat was contaminated.
When hunters send their deer to a meat processor it is mixed with all the
other carcasses. There is no way to monitor this as the deer bodies are
brought in fresh. Processors cannot hold a deer carcass for over six weeks
before processing! There are not enough storage facilities and/or freezers.
To cover-up the true nature of the disease in Colorado it has been called CWD
or Chronic Wasting Disease. The problem became so serious that the Division
of Wildlife was forced to tell the truth calling for a public meeting on
April 7, 2000 to ask for public help in reducing the deer population by 50%
in an effort to reduce spread of the disease.
Most of the state of Colorado is infected. The heaviest concentration of the
disease has been found in Game Management Unit 9 north of Fort Collins
between US highway 287 and I-25 up to the Wyoming state line. Units around
the Red Feathers area, Masonville, Glacier View, and Estes Park are also
experiencing high levels of Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathy.
