Frightened residents in a Montana town have been recently pointing out that hundreds of deer are mysteriously dying in their area.
Montana wildlife officials reported that more than 100 dead white-tailed deer have been seen in the west Missoula Valley.
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks officials say they are waiting for lab results to come back so they can try to determine what’s caused the deaths, according to krtv.
“The deer may show no outward symptoms of disease,” said Vickie Edwards, FWP wildlife biologist in Missoula. “People are seeing healthy looking deer fall over dead.”
Scientists are currently speculating that these deaths are the result of a disease called Epizootic hemorrhagic disease.
“Hemorrhagic disease viruses are not contagious from one animal to another and are not transmissible to humans,” said Jennifer Ramsey, FWP Wildlife Veterinarian in Bozeman. “Transmission is only known to occur through the bite of the gnat.”
The disease poses no threat to humans. Anyone who sees dead or sick deer in the Missoula area is asked to call FWP at 542-5515 with observations and locations.
