Good for him. This what we mean when we say hunting is about conservation of the resources. Sometimes you take, and sometimes you give.
Let this be a testament to all anti gun fuckers who think hunters are monsters. This has got to be one of the coolest videos Ive seen in a while.
Interesting question, I googled it, and got the answer from Gemini:
"There are no reported cases of chronic wasting disease (CWD) infecting humans. However, health authorities consider it a theoretical risk because other similar "prion" diseases, such as "mad cow disease," have crossed the species barrier into humans.
Key Scientific Findings
- Strong Species Barrier: Recent NIH research (May 2024) used lab-grown human brain tissue ("organoids") and found that even high doses of CWD prions failed to cause infection, suggesting a significant biological barrier against transmission to humans.
- Animal Studies: While transmission has not been seen in humans, some studies have shown that non-human primates (like monkeys) can contract the disease by eating meat or brain tissue from infected deer.
- Monitoring: A 2024 case involving the deaths of two hunters who ate venison from a CWD-infected population raised concerns; however, the CDC determined these deaths were likely standard cases of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) and not linked to CWD.
Safety Recommendations
The CDC and World Health Organization advise the following precautions:
- Test Your Harvest: If hunting in a CWD-endemic area, strongly consider having the animal tested before consumption.
- Avoid Sick Animals: Never eat meat from deer or elk that appear thin, stumble, or act strangely.
- Safe Butchering: Wear rubber or latex gloves when field-dressing and avoid handling high-risk tissues like the brain or spinal cord.
- Cooking Doesn't Work: Prions are not destroyed by normal cooking temperatures"

Cool. Thanks! CWD is just another reason for me to not eat venison - which I have never liked anyway. I stopped hunting a long time ago too. I rather shoot an animal with a camera than a rifle.
He risked giving it mouth to mouth and getting (theoretically anyway), CWD. Double aww!
Oh dear. Don't shoot me if you ever see me, shooting with a camera.... I shoot nature and people.... (*ducks*)

No worries. Better to shoot nature -n- people than people -n- nature. The blood attracts too many wolves & bears & the like anyway. Why would I shoot you? 😄
Well, the thing is, some people don't like street photographers, I've got some stories about that, almost involving my blood, lol

I'm an amateur photographer myself and I have no problems with photographers but, there are a couple of "photojournalists" that I wouldn't care if they got shot. Their editors don't realize who exactly they have working for them but... it wouldn't be me shooting them either.
Are you employed as a staff photographer or stringer or affiliated with any newspapers?

Two in the pink, one in the stink!
Honestly, that was incredible. What a story to be able to tell and with video evidence.
