A deer species strain of Mad Cow Disease has been detected in Norway, increasing potential of it showing up in Alaska. As KUAC’s Dan Bross reports, the incidence has raised flags with state biologists conducting surveillance for the degenerative brain disease.

Dan has been in public radio news in Alaska since 1993. He’s worked as a reporter, newscaster and talk show host at stations in McGrath, Valdez and Fairbanks. Dan’s experience includes coverage of a wide range of topics, from wolf control to the Trans-Alaska Pipeline and dog mushing.
