  • Probably because FNB is about peace and non-violence and to end the oppression of human and non-human animals who suffers wrong.  Sports wildlife killing is a billion dollar industry and whitetails are the biggest money maker so it don't matter what diseases the animals have so long as there is a place to "give" the carcass. Gee, what would they do without the pantries? Hunters will have to eat the meat which means that less tags would be sold and business will plummet.

  • hunters for the hungry i have given several deer to the program.

  • Easy to "give" what you don't want isn't it?

  • i would like to have taken it but they could have used it more than me.

  • ah huh, prions are found in nervous tissue, the brain, and the "hunters" don't usually eat the brains. Besides, no one has ever contacted this disease from eating meat anyway. You are lieing, again....

  • You were the one who thought it was a "bacteria' lol. Yes there has been death associated with prions there is a link on video information for more on that topic.

  • True, its not bacteria (my fault). However, I have found no transmission of these virus particles (they are dna or rna without the protein coat, much smaller than viruses) in meat donated for people. MILLIONS of pounds of meat goes to help poor people. Even if ANY were tainted in some way, it would still be safer than getting a flu shot.

  • "MILLIONS of pounds of meat goes to poison poor people"

    Hunter deer meat "given" to the pantries are not usda inspected and not tested for CWD except in Wisconsin which I have learned because its so bad now and getting worse that so many deer are being killed to "control the diseases" and those are the carcass "given" to the pantries after being tested (started recently).

  • I don't understand with the hunters talking big about "mmm venison" why don't they take the meat and give to families and friend , shove them in the freezer so they can eat for years? Hunters kill because they enjoy snuffing out a life not for food or survival.

    + instead of poisoning the pantries there are 150 billion pounds of edible food wasted in America every year why don't you and your killing buddies start a food salvage program and "give" to poor rather then killing and dumping?

  • For you info, we utilize all our deer meat. Some people do enjoy hunting and give to pantries.

  • You mean the lowlife human waste "enjoy" killing animals and dumping the body to the pantries after they were done their fun right?

  • gee, but it keeps hungry people unhungry and is a good use of deer. Better than road kill, by a long shot. When they test, they will find little if any problems.

  • Why is it that when hunters "give" the bodies of the animals they have destroyed for fun/trophy and sports with the risk of dangerous disease even bovine TB and other Pathogens its "nobel" but have vegetarians who speak out against the war and also feed the hungry through out America and the world gets into trouble by the government and calls them "terrorist" when they attempt to feed homeless people vegetarian food. I am talking about Food Not Bombs.

    cont.

  • What a crock! PROPAGANDA FILM! Even if deer had the disease, only .001% would be infected, and the meat is COOKED! Bacteria KILLED.  end of story. Just more propaganda to try to stop hunting.

  • You cannot destroy prions that easily its defective protein.

    "Prions are simply proteins, not living organisms, and they can survive almost anything, even hundreds of degrees of heat. Placing infected tissue in a landfill simply removes it, but scientists worry that the prions can leach through soil and groundwater, and spread.

    Incineration is possible, but it isn't as easy as burning the carcass in a fire. Temperatures of more than 1,100 degrees Fahrenheit —

    cont

  • You are no expert of "prions". Stop pretending to be.

  • sometimes up to 1,800 degrees — are required to effectively neutralize prions. Unlike most bacteria, regular cooking won't help at all.

    "Disposal issues are tough," says Barbara Powers, director of Colorado State University's Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory

    How many human will eventually die from prions when hunters "gave" their kill to the pantries?

  • Seems you know nothing about this disease.

  • wow. that is some heavy stuff. i'll have to look into it more before actually making my decision however.

  • You really should be the government continues to ignore the seriousness of it just like what happened in Great Britain when they kept reassuring that Mad cow is nothing to worry about then came all the human death from the disease.

  • Do you know anything about the "unknown illness" that has been popping up with the horse population over the past month 1/2.

  • Not really but just about everyone knows about mad cow, mad deer, cwd and cjd and its all connected.

  • Epidemiologists with the Federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta and epidemiologists at the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment have studied chronic wasting disease and found no link between it and any neurological disease that affects humans.

  • The government attempt to hide the seriousness of it because if the public new about mad deer disease there be no more 'hunting' because no pantries will take diseased carcass and we know that 'hunters' don't eat the meat they just love to kill.

  • Yep its a conspiracy so that hunters can hunt...They are keeping this a secret along with UFOS, Zero Point Energy and who really pulled off 9/11.....

    Keep up the rant...and more people will see right through you. Im done.

  • GW Bush knew about 911 attack, I believe in UFO and I believe that mad deer disease is a very serious matter.

    Deer Disease and CJD in Humans 1/18/99

    Headline: Brain disease a slow goodbye. The article in on the video information, and I never trust the government because they are only about money not about about the pain and suffering of animals and human lives.

  • Need I say more.....lol

  • You think we are the only life form on this vast universe? You know how many galaxies there are and you think man is the "only" life that exist?

  • Of course you live in your own little pro-bush right wing hypocrite mentality world of ignorance.

  • lucky bastard that was too easy a set up now what can i do to bring out more crazy point where have most of the salmonella outbreaks come from hey arch whatch dc go crazy

  • Why don't you explain it to us in details.

  • You truely are ignorant, I think you need to open your eyes because the government do not care about your lives.

  • You really need to get a spell check and take any grammer classes over that you may have taken in the past...I suspect however that the Junior High that you attend may not teach it.

  • That is so typical of right wing conservative mentality to point out spelling and grammar to take focus off the real issue.

  • R. Douglas McEwen, was 30 when he died. It was confirmed that he died of CJD by autopsy in 1999. Not from deer or elk CWD. In fact if this were true there would have been an epidemic of this very rare condition since in the last ten years there have been tens of thousands of deer and elk taken and eaten.

    There are many types of prion disease, including CJD and CWD but because they are both prion diseases do not mean they are the same disease.

  • Those are all related CWD/Mad Deer Disease and CJD. I was watching this video in NJ where the wildlife serial killers dump the carcass to the pantries. They has the game meat packaging place and they cutting right into the spinal cord of the meat that pantries going to get. Not only that but the deer carcass scraped from the streets also given to the pantries. The abundance of deer created by the wildlife agencies to begin, dead on the road and given to the pantries.

  • "CWD, like bovine spongiform encephalopathy and its human equivalent, variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease,"

  • read the link called

    What the government isn't telling you about mad deer disease.

    It could happen here. Though scientists once almost uniformly scoffed at the idea that CWD posed any threat to domestic animals or humans, many are worried now. CWD prions -- the family of mutant proteins that cause the disease -- may have already claimed human lives in this country. There's no physical evidence yet, but the rapid spread of the disease among elk and two different species of deer,

  • its jump east across the Mississippi into dense populations of game and farm animals, and a rash of suspicious deaths among hunters are raising alarms.

    Some health professionals and activists argue that not enough is being done to protect consumers, hunters, and the beef cattle and dairy cows that sometimes share pasture with infected game animals and were fed road-kill deer as recently as seven years ago.

  • Bosque believes no one knows enough about CWD -- more commonly known as mad deer -- to say that eating venison is safe. "If it was very transmissible, we'd know it," he says. "But if it was somewhat transmissible, like BSE [bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or mad cow] in England, it would be hard to know."

    Scary huh? poor pantry people

  • Yes, its not the wildlife killers we have to worry about because they don't eat them, its the pantries.

  • This is scary stuff and those poor people at the pantries.
