Don't forget the rubber gloves and hand-sanitizer before AND after bloodying those blades. And always wear a dust mask. Animal dander is an muchly under-recognized danger that all hunters eventually face. Even those that have household pets, can be susceptable to the occasional sneeze. And don't forget to burn any clothing that comes into contact with animal body fluids, immediately upon contact. Call 911 as soon as you think you've been exposed to even the most minor of germs. Get into the habit of taking antibiotics every morning, right after your One-a-Day.......


I asked the biologist at Kerr WMA about diseases in hogs and he said they carry stuff like brucellosis, psuedorabies, and tularemia. He said he used to clean them without gloves and would put dip in with bloody hands and says it's a miracle he's still alive. Now he wears gloves and mask.
