This appears to be the deer-form of Mad Cow Disease and apparently the prions in the feces can be spread even after it goes into the ground and in the plants that grow from it afterwards.
- evandev 7y agoThere is no case of a human contracting CWD. While CWD can be an issue for the local deer population, it is not something to be worried about. Avoid eating brains, spinal cords, and lymph nodes of deer as a precaution.
