SUMMARY: Mississippi wildlife officials are informing the public about chronic wasting disease (CWD) management zones due to its severe impact on deer populations.

Transportation of carcasses is prohibited outside these zones to prevent disease spread, and hunters can only transport deer heads to permitted taxidermists with a specific sample number. Supplemental feeding is banned in management zones to reduce deer concentration and contact with the disease. Current CWD management zones include North Mississippi, Issaquena, and Harrison areas.
