I just saw this article about a positive CWD deer that was killed in PA. It made me think.

If the prions are present in brain and spinal tissue...
If prions can live in the soil for years....
Would blowing a deers head or spine apart with a rifle just spread the prions more? Would dragging that brain shot deer through the woods leave a prion trail? Would the prions be contained to a smaller area if the deer just died naturally?
Just random thoughts on a Monday morning.
