Deer
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) testing for deer (bucks and does) is mandatory and free for all rifle season hunters who have harvested in specific hunt codes in the following game management units (GMUs): 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 15, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 45, 46, 51, 61, 62, 64, 65, 131, 181, 191, 211, 231, 361, 371, 391, and 461.
The hunt codes selected for mandatory testing are shaded green in the 2022 Colorado Big Game Brochure, starting on page 22. Check your hunt codes closely, as not all hunt codes in each Game Management Unit (GMU) were selected for mandatory CWD testing.
