In 2005, the "zombie deer" disease struck New York after several deer infected with chronic wasting disease (CWD) escaped from a fenced-in pen in Oneida County, a largely rural area in upstate New York.
That same year, Pennsylvania reported an outbreak of CWD in deer just a few miles from the New York State border. As of this month, the CDC reports that the disease has been found in 31 states, as well as three Canadian provinces, northern Europe and South Korea.
