Animal Activists Initiate Lead Bullet Ban

February 21, 2013

(ANIMAL WELFARE) Hunting with lead ammunition might soon be a thing of the past in the state of California. Three animal organizations are gearing up to push a bill that would put a statewide ban on using lead ammunition during hunting. Although a partial ban is already in place it looks like a change is necessary since lead ammunition is still causing the endangered California condor, bald eagle, and other birds to die from lead poisoning after consuming animals shot by hunters. Animal advocates are proposing that a switch be made to copper bullets, which are more environmentally-friendly. Unfortunately, the NRA is resistant to this plan. Read on to find out why it’s essential to make this change in order to save these majestic birds. — Global Animal
