Deer Virus in Berrien, Cass counties

Hunters in Berrien, Cass, and Ottawa counties may be taken aback due to cases of Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease that have been found in white-tailed deer. Although rare this far north, the first case of this disease in Michigan was recorded in 1955 with more cases in 1974, 2006, 2008, and 2009. Tom Cooley, spokesman for MDNRE, said the disease should be gone two weeks after the first frost of the season.
