Evidence of the toxic effects of lead ammunition on wildlife spurs a search for common ground.

WYOFILE - A biologist who has helped rescue dozens of raptors poisoned by lead bullet fragments in game carcasses seeks to educate, not regulate, hunters.

Study of hundreds of bald eagles and golden eagles show that nearly half of them had chronic lead poisoning.

While the reappearance of condors in our skies is certainly a success story, the endangered birds are still struggling. Researchers eventually learned why.

The a Wyoming based organization associated is trying to raise enough awareness to get people to think twice before using lead.

Debunking Copper vs. Lead with Sporting Lead-Free

A Wyoming hunting group, wants to prove the value of switching ammo and tackle to local sportsmen and women. The group hopes to reduce lead consumed inadvertently by people and wildlife and show the positives of choosing tackle and ammo that doesn’t poison the environment.

Ten years of monitoring donated venison in Minnesota have found that more than 7% of deer meat contains toxic lead fragments from bullets.

Lead-based ammunition leaves behind residues in carcasses that are toxic to golden eagles and other species. Hunters can make a difference by choosing non-lead alternatives.
