Horizontal Transmission of Chronic Wasting Disease in Reindeer

Horizontal Transmission of Chronic Wasting Disease in Reindeer

We challenged reindeer by the intracranial route with the agent of chronic wasting disease sourced from white-tailed deer, mule deer, or elk and tested for horizontal transmission to naive reindeer. Reindeer were susceptible to chronic wasting disease regardless of source species. Horizontal transmi...
