Cook’s Landing County Park

NOTICE

Allen County Park staff have, unfortunately, been finding dead deer at our parks due to EHD (Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease). Hemorrhagic Disease (HD) primarily affects white-tailed deer and is causing a significant mortality event in northern Indiana.  Sheep, cows, and goats are also susceptible. Â It is important to note that humans and dogs are not affected by this disease.  According to Joe Caudell, head of the IDNR deer program, hunters that kill a deer and eat the meat are still not affected. Click Here for a brief article on this disease. If you come across an infected deer please let the Nature Center staff or gate attendants know of the location and we will report the sighting to the IDNR.
