New Fight CWD Incentive Program Launched By TWRA

By Ronni Chase Nov 17, 2021 | 4:20 PM

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency has developed the Fight CWD Incentive Program for the 2021-22 deer hunting season which contains new hunting incentives to support TWRA’s chronic wasting disease (CWD) management effort.  Hunters who harvest a positive deer will receive a $75 voucher redeemable for processing deer on their next deer harvest at participating processors. Residents who harvest two or more CWD-positive deer during the 2021-22 season will receive an annual sportsman’s license for 2022. If the hunter has a lifetime license, the annual license can be gifted to a person of his/her choice.  Complete details on Fight CWD Incentive Program, Unit CWD Earn-a-Buck Program, Replacement Buck Program, and Landowner Program may be found on the TWRA website, https://www.tn.gov/twra/hunting/cwd.html.
