DNR says it will look harder at insecticides effect on Minnesota deer March 4, 2021 11:10pm Text size Copy shortlink: Nearly 2,000 hunters who signed up to participate in a pilot study to gauge the prevalence of neonicotinoids in Minnesota s deer population haven t heard the last from researchers who launched the project in 2019. Based on this week s surprising announcement that the insecticides have infiltrated deer in just about every corner of the state, the Department of Natural Resources is on a quest to determine if the so-called neonics are detrimental to the health of the state s most-sought-after game animal. Discussions already have begun with wildlife officials in North Dakota to collaborate on a research paper showing dispersal of the chemicals in deer from both states. In North Dakota, 52% of deer spleens checked for neonics have tested positive.
