flag Two deer in Gettysburg Park test positive for chronic wasting disease, prompting warnings to avoid sick wildlife and report sightings.

flag Gettysburg National Military Park has confirmed its first cases of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in two white-tailed deer during population reduction efforts. flag The fatal neurological disease, present in Pennsylvania since 2012, has spread to multiple regions, with infection rates rising to over 32% in some areas. flag Park officials are testing all harvested deer and urging visitors to avoid sick or dead wildlife, keep pets leashed, and report suspicious sightings. flag While CWD does not infect humans, health officials advise against consuming meat from infected animals. flag The Pennsylvania Game Commission continues to expand disease monitoring through free deer head testing and warns against feeding deer, which increases disease spread and harms animal health.
