NIDS field records and samples from the ranch, 1996-2004

DocumentOctober 1996: NIDS plans to station two scientists and a veterinarian at the ranch and to publish in journals

Logs, photographs, video, carcass examinations and soil and tissue samples are described or implied in the 2005 book, which concedes "very little physical evidence". None was published. NIDS's own index of animal-pathology reports, as it stood in May 2004, lists cases from five states and the wider Basin but none from the ranch.
