I'll bet I know how the author votes. I'd have to see a report from someone else respectable to give this more than a passing thought. And I'll leave it at that before I violate the rules of this forum (which I respect).

The list of diseases feral hogs can carry would make you not want to touch them with a ten foot pole, yet they are one of the most hunted and favored game animals around.
The official manner in which the state of Texas wants unwanted feral hogs disposed of is an interesting short read, and I doubt very many get handled the official way.

Peer reviewed study out of Cornell in a reputable journal that isn't at odds with what we know of animal reservoirs or viral adaptation. Looks like a well done study though I didn't exactly critically review it ( which would take hours).
I don't think there's any slant here, just regular science. Wildlife biologists tend to be a pretty grounded group of folks. Worthwhile field of study in case these variants find a way back to the human population, possibly having picked up adaptations in deer that make them more virulent in humans.

The real kicker is going to be getting them to wear masks..😷.. That was one of my thoughts. Also thought it might provide an anti-hunting for public safety angle.
