Additionally, KPRC 2 highlighted a price reduction for Tinder Gold, now available for $39.97 instead of $108. Finally, the station reported on the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's (TPWD) investigation into the illegal transportation of seven deer, including a captive white-tailed deer. Two men were arrested and convicted for violating TPWD statutes and regulations, as well as committing criminal and traffic violations. The investigation revealed that the deer were being transported without the necessary documentation and identification, raising concerns about disease monitoring and testing compliance. Due to their unknown disease status and potential risks, the deer involved in the case were euthanized after disease testing protocols.
