4-1-15 deer baiting and feeding

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A wildlife expert says a Republican bill aimed at allowing Wisconsin residents to feed deer may have fatal implications for the animals. The bill would allow counties with chronic wasting disease to resume baiting and feeding the animals after three years if no new cases turn up. Current state law prohibits baiting and feeding in counties where infected deer are found as well as in adjacent counties indefinitely. Thirty-five counties have bans.
