paulus 26 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 due to the very mild autum and winters we have experienced over the recent years the fleas and tics have been active for longer so the virus has been around for longer. from my observations it seems to go in 5 year cycles. year 1 the area will be descimated then over the next 4 years it will recover to roughly 3/4 of the origanal population. its as if they have a sort of semi immunity with just odd ones falling to the virus. then in year 5 a full on outbreak again. then the cycle continues loosing a 1/4 of their number every time so the population gets smaller and smaller.
