I had an interesting talk today with a fellow from the State of Kansas Dept of Wildlife. Way too much to cover here, BUT! He told me that the midwest states, and the western states have comissioned studies using people from the Center for Disease Control, CDC, to study the problem of the effect of lead shot on the Public Health. These are apparently 2 seperate studies. I assume that this will be the "Scientific" basis for further action. He indicated that concern (by whom?) has been voiced in the public health sector about eating big game animals shot with lead bullets. He said he thought that was a stretch, but it is being looked at. He referenced a study done by the State of Iowa, Dept of Natl Rescources which thought was pretty definitive. I havnt had time to look at it yet. SO! there seems to be a lot of work going on by a lot of States. His last comment was "These ARE the good old days, enjoy them while you can"....
