Unified Sportsmen of Pennsylvania respond to accusations, tell what happened to funds intended for CWD research
It has been four-and-a-half years since the Unified Sportsmen of Pennsylvania held a press conference in Harrisburg announcing that the group was backing chronic wasting disease research done by Dr. Frank Bastian.
Bastian – at the time a researcher affiliated with Louisiana State University – claimed that CWD is caused by a bacterium, rather than a prion, contrary to what is believed by the vast majority of the scientific community.
