View Comment

This is Seth Bauer my wife Megan and I own Bauer Whitetails, LLC in Wisconsin. We have been in this business a few short years and already it is apparent that the strict animal testing in this industry is important. However, it is very costly to the farmers and more importantly VERY stressful in some situations boarderline inhumane to some of the animals. We are very in favor of a compermise on behalf of the farmers, and legislation for the sake of the animals to pass the proposed "Tuberculosis in Captive Cervids; Extended Interval for Conducting Reaccreditation Test"! Thank you in advance for passing this important ruling! Signed: Seth Bauer of Bauer Whitetails, LLC on behalf of Deer and Deer Farmers everywhere!
