We do not believe our wild deer are infected with TB. Since 1996, over 150,000 deer in WI have been screened for bovine TB, and no evidence of the disease has been found. WDNR will continue annual TB screening. As a hunter, you may be asked by DNR personnel to provide a sample from your deer for TB and other disease screening. This is voluntary, but your cooperation is important in detecting this disease.
