Local radio program yesterday had a wildlife rescue lady ranting against lead ammo causing toxicity in eagles and other raptors. She said the problem spiked when trumps pick for Interior Zinke lifted the ban on lead ammo. And that prior to that, ALL lead ammo was banned for hunting and they weren’t seeing any problems.
She definitely had a bias. I thought the lead ban was federal land only (and some states) and that waterfowl areas etc remain banned.
Is there conclusive evidence of lead toxicity from hunting ammo?
Is she wrong about the previous ban on lead ammo for hunting?
I might call in Monday and contradict her but I’m looking for solid info.
Thanks
