  Scott Johnson (DNR Biologist) was on hand
to get a first hand look at the quality and age of those being checked
in, with the oldest being 5 1/2 years of age. He also took glands from
several deer for a random sampling to test for any presents of the
Chronic Wasting Disease, which has not been found in the State to date.
Pictured with Scott Johnson (L) is Andy
Ripley a student at Ball State Univ. with his major being Wildlife, one
of many class assignments was to assist DNR at a check station.
Andy spent opening day on the lot at Spencer Bait & Tackle. Scott's
excellent training abilities enabled Andy to quickly pick up on the
aging and monitoring process preformed on Whitetail Deer.

 Morgan Hanbury(L) and Janeen Reed shown
collecting the various types of ticks found on the Whitetail Deer for
research purpose. Morgan a senior to graduate in the spring
of 2008 with a degree in Natural Resource, and Janeen a junior
working toward her degree in Forestry, both are students
at Purdue Univ. They have spent time collecting ticks from deer in
Monroe, Owen, Greene and Putnam Counties, while other teams from Purdue
were sent to other counties in the state taking samples as well.
All ticks removed from a deer
were bagged, sealed, and assigned a specific number relating to that
deer and it's harvest location noted on a map. The data along
with the ticks will be returned to the veterinary department at
Purdue. Graduate students will perform the required test looking for
lime disease concentrations in Indiana.
