Brought through or in.

CWD is only found in the spine and brain. You do not have to take the spine out of the field in TX just the quarters with the leg bones in them.
This is incorrect. They test areas with high concentrations of the prion, hence wanting lymph nodes. But it's not wholly contained to those areas in a carcass. Any body fluid can carry/spread the prion, including blood. De-boned meat is far less likely to come into contact with other animals than partially processed meat...
