CWD Testing Options
The AGFC offers many avenues for hunters to have deer or elk tested for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention strongly recommends all hunters who are hunting in areas where CWD is known to be present to have their deer tested. Submitting a deer for CWD sampling is voluntary; however, all elk harvested in Arkansas must be submitted for a CWD test. CWD testing is free.
