The state issued a do-not-eat wildlife advisory Thursday warning people not to eat deer or turkeys from two new areas of Maine because of PFAS contamination. The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife and the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention on Thursday warned people not to eat deer or wild turkey harvested in portions of Unity, Unity Township, Albion and Freedom. There was already an advisory against eating wildlife harvested in Fairfield and parts of Skowhegan issued in 2021.
