This video explains Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease (EHD), a viral illness affecting white-tailed deer, transmitted by midges. It details EHD symptoms like fever and seeking water, its seasonal nature, and how it differs from Blue Tongue Disease and Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD). The description highlights a collaboration between Dr. Bronson Strickland of Wildlife Investments and Mossberg, discussing why EHD-infected deer are found near water. EHD is distinct from CWD, a prion disease spread through contact, while EHD is insect-borne and not a threat to humans. The discussion emphasizes the seasonal end of EHD outbreaks with frost.
