Chronic Wasting Disease Map
Track the spread of chronic wasting disease (CWD) at the county level and view CWD management zones, surveillance and incentive areas, CWD testing locations, and carcass disposal sites.
Make Informed Decisions in CWD Zones
Working with the National Deer Association, we gathered country-wide data to highlight CWD-positive counties. onX Hunt’s CWD Map Layers bring you the latest CWD information and trends so you can make informed decisions about where you hunt while complying with CWD regulations.
CWD Map Breakdown
Visualize CWD Distribution
For your own peace of mind and to comply with ever-changing regulations, onX Hunt’s CWD Map Layers keep you informed of CWD trends at the county level.
Find CWD Testing Locations
Getting your harvest tested helps monitor CWD spread, and in many places, it’s the law. The Hunt App’s CWD Map Layer displays thousands of sample site locations across the country.
Comply With CWD Regulations
Keeping track of CWD regulations, especially when traveling, can be difficult. With the CWD Zones Map Layer, tap into any zone for centralized information on carcass transportation restrictions and mandatory or voluntary sampling programs.
Locate Carcass Disposal Sites
Many states regulate the disposal of CWD-positive carcasses and require that they be disposed of only in certain locations. Find the nearest carcass disposal site with the Hunt App.
Whether you’re hunting at home in a disease zone or traveling to hunt, be sure to turn on the CWD Map Layers. They’ll keep you legal, keep you safe, and allow us to do everything we can to fight this dreaded disease.
