Lead shot is banned for waterfowl hunting and on national wildlife refuges, but when it comes to upland hunting lead is still the ammunition of choice. Eagle rehabilitators say the lead ammo is having a devastating effect on our national bird.
Thank you for posting this. The more education about the devastating effects of lead poisoning on eagles and other wild life, the better. Bullets don't have to be made with lead.
This isn't anti gun or anti hunting at all. The folks who are working to understand and document the lead poisoning issue in raptors only real goal is to stop eagles from dying this way. Sure, there are people out there who might use the issue to further their anti gun/hunting agenda, but as hunters we only help their cause when we deny whats going on and ignore the evidence that is staring us in the face.
