Existing techniques include removing animals that appear sick and random population reduction. One method, in which groups of deer in areas of high infection are culled, has prompted criticism because healthy animals also are killed. Researchers say the test-and-cull method could catch infected deer earlier. As infected animals get sicker, sick-er, they become increasingly contagious, conta-gious, shedding more of the abnormal abnor-mal prion protein thought to cause the fatal brain disease. Charles Southwick, a retired University of Colorado biology professor, pro-fessor, is among the most vocal critics of hot-spot culling. He said some sick animals remain to reinfect survivors, and removing so many deer may encourage others to migrate into the vacant territory could expose more animals to infection. Since December 2002, Division of Wildlife teams have systematically tranquilized deer outside Rocky TflERE'S NOT ENOUGH ART IN OUR SCHq GESUNDHEIT" WHEN Jf one were to make a quick list of the world's favorite composers, despite his relatively recent vintage Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky would be on it.

Indeed, this great Romantic composer should Ine so immortalized. As a young man, he pursued a career in music at enormous personal risk and against his own father's advice. His mild temperament combined with his tendency to work too hard left him with in nnnia, debilitating headaches and hallucinations. On top of that, Tchaikovsky's composition teacher never liked his work, Friends of Animals has the following fol-lowing cats available for adoption: "Shilo" is a shorthair, all grey female cat. She has a very elegant and thick coat. She loves children and other kitties, but she is a little scared of dogs.

She does great with other cats, dogs, and adores people. She is looking for her forever home. Might you be the one? "Sarah" is a one-year-old, female grey tabby with white "socks."

The deer are tagged for later identification iden-tification and some are fitted with radio collars. Over 34 days between December and May, officers tested 51 of the estimated 350 mule deer wintering in Estes Park. A smaller number were tested inside Rocky Mountain National Park by park staff. Fifteen animals tested among the Estes Park deer were positive for chronic wasting disease. Thirteen of them were euthanized and the remaining two died of other causes. The removal of the 13 positive . cases should be enough to decrease the infection rate identified in the current testing season, said Division of Wildlife veterinarian Mike Miller. By next year, agency and park biologists hope to have tested every deer in the herd of about 450 that wanders between the town and the park. ' Only two of the 50 deer tested this fall have been positive.

The technique has drawbacks. At $300 per test, the program is up to three times as expensive as other types of culling. And the Estes Park deer are used to people, making it easy for officers to approach for a clean shot with tranquilizer guns. The technique wouldn't work in national forests or county open space, Miller said. "It is expensive and this is the ideal situation to apply this approach," Miller said. "But if the measuring stick is a reduction in prevalence, it might not be as expensive expen-sive as it appears now." Hot-spot culling is the most cost-effective cost-effective technique, but test-and-cull could be an alternative for urban areas, Miller said. He also said up to one-half of the cost could be eliminated when new, rapid field tests become available. Much of the current cost stems from the use of radio gear to relocate infected animals after test results are available. SAY YOU SAY even after he became world-famous. Setbacks like these could have finished a lesser man. Instead, they informed his work, which remains some of the best loved in history.
