Disease reported among region's wildlife
By Bill Rhoades
For Spityay Tymoo
Big game animals in the United
States have been subjected to signifi
cant outbreaks of disease during the
past year and recent problems have
been reported in Oregon as close as
Crooked River Ranch.
Wildlife biologists say it has be
come apparent the diseases are spread
ing rapidly and could impact wildlife
populations in a negative way. Some
of the diseases are potentially danger
ous to livestock and even humans.
At Crooked River Ranch a sick
deer was discovered and reported by
a homeowner on May 9 of this year.
Around the same time 13 road-killed
deer were recorded on the ranch
within a period of three days while
numerous other deaths were being
reported from surrounding areas.
Deer carcasses were collected by
state and federal officials and tissue
samples were sent to Oregon State
University (OSU) for analysis. Labo
ratory results from OSU indicate all
of the tested animals had died from
Adenovirus (AHD).
AMD was first identified in Cali
fornia deer in 1993. An outbreak in
that state lasted for seven months,
spreading to 17 counties and killing
several thousand deer.
Symptoms of AHD include sores
or lesions in the throat and mouth.
There may also be foaming at the
mouth or drooling. In the acute form
death usually occurs in five days.
Approximately 100 deer have died
in the Crooked River Ranch area. The
AHD virus is transmitted through
direct contact with infected deer,

blood, feces or urine, and was likely
spread at locations where the animals
congregated to eat or water. Several
of the dead deer were found around
the homes of ranch residents.
The disease primarily affects deer,
but pronghorn antelope in California
have also contacted AHD. It is also
possible the virus has a wildlife vec
tor host, which m?.y be ground squir
rels. The Oregon Department of Fish
and Wildlife will develop a ground
squirrel sampling and test plan in the
outbreak area to determine whether
or not they carry the virus. There is
no information that indicates live
stock or humans are susceptible to
AHD. ...
The primary' concern in Warm
Springs stems from the fact that deer
summering around Crooked River
Ranch may migrate onto the reserva
tion to winter. Radio-collared big
game animals have been known to
travel long distances during seasonal
migrations and it is not uncommon
for deer to move back and forth be
tween the reservation and other ar
eas of Central Oregon.
The Fish and Wildlife Department
in Warm Springs, in cooperation with
OSU Extension and the Range and
Agriculture De partment, is in the
process of developing a plan to deal
with a possible outbreak of disease
in local big game populations. Offi
cials say the plan will be completed
prior to the fall hunting season. For
the time being, tribal officials are ask
ing anyone who encounters a wild
animal that appears to be sick to call
Natural Resources at 553-2001, 2002,
or 2003. Such animals should be ap
proached with caution and should
only be handled by trained persons
wearing latex gloves.
