The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) continues to receive reports from people around the state of dead deer.
The culprit appears to be hemorrhagic disease (HD), a general term for epizootic hemorrhagic disease and the bluetongue virus.
I heard a report on the radio this morning that over 2,800 dead deer have been reported thus far.
They stated that these deaths were located in "spots" around the state but the overall herd numbers were still in good shape.
I guess if you happen to live in one of the affected areas you can expect to find hunting and killing a deer a little more difficult.
