When they head out this fall, Pennsylvania deer hunters will face expanded chronic wasting disease regulations as the number of deer being impacted by Chronic Wasting Disease… an always fatal neurological disease that affects deer but is not transmissible to humans…. continues to rise in the state. Hunters are prohibited from importing high-risk parts or materials from deer harvested, taken or killed in any state or country outside Pennsylvania. Hunters are now also prohibited from moving high-risk parts outside of the Established Area. In addition to hunter-harvested deer, both changes also apply to deer killed in vehicle collisions that are picked up for consumption. More information can be found at the Pennsylvania Game Commission website.
