This week on Deer and Wildlife Stories, host Keith Warren visits Tajada Whitetails, located in Manvel, TX. We discuss how focusing on breeding with CWD-resistant genetics is the only way to beat Chronic Wasting Disease.

In this episode, Keith learns how Tajada Whitetails is addressing the CWD issue using a science-based approach to their breeding program. This breeding strengthens a deer’s resistance to Chronic Wasting Disease and at the same time improves overall herd health while maintaining trophy quality.

While much of the country is struggling to combat CWD, deer breeders like Tajada Whitetails are successfully solving the CWD issue by creating whitetails that are genetically durable to CWD. Releasing these highly durable genetics into the wild will help create a wild deer herd that is more resistant to CWD.

One key element of Tajada Whitetails’ success lies in their understanding that a long-term deer breeding program begins with building strong genetics from every angle. While bucks often steal the spotlight, it’s the does that pass on the majority of genetic traits for future generations. By focusing on CWD resistance in both bucks and does, Tajada Whitetails ensures that the offspring inherit the best traits for CWD resistance while maintaining trophy quality.

With a strong focus on family unity and a commitment to cutting-edge breeding technologies, Tajada Whitetails stands as a model of innovation in the deer farming industry. Their dedication to breeding resilient, high-quality deer sets a new standard for breeders across the country.

For those entering the deer farming business or looking to improve their herds, Tajada Whitetails offers a forward-thinking approach to genetics, sustainability, and long-term herd health.

Deer and Wildlife Stories is a renowned platform for the whitetail deer enthusiast. By focusing on captive deer farming, this program shares valuable scientific information with all whitetail enthusiasts that can only be obtained through the captive breeding of deer. This information is proving valuable to the country's professional wildlife biologists as they consider management decisions for the nation’s wild deer population.
