Slop posts go in c/slop. Don't post low-hanging fruit here.
How is this happening? It's my understanding that prions need to be ingested to spread because they're basically just malformed proteins, so are deer engaging in mass cannibalism?

Fun fact, prions are terribly resistant to heat but ash has the right chemical composition to neutralize prions in the soil.
Oh!
This sounds like another consequence of eliminating the natural fire cycle. We don't let grasslands or forests burn naturally anymore and so the prions are building up.
