The eagles in Iowa I mentioned died within the last 5 years. I have no dog in this fight but I do know that lead poisoning is serious stuff. The "pain" the police officers endures was reported in the article in the paper and I am just mentioning it. I do know the range was very poorly ventilated. I certainly am not trying to get lead shot outlawed anywhere,but I am aware that many years of shooting over certain areas will lead to the build up of lead shot.I have "mined" it out of the backstops on ranges myself.
