I've seen the same sight, up to five eagles on the ground in front of me eating doves I had shot with lead shot, of course. I didn't see any dead or sick looking ones around either, but that certainly is no evidence that they are not being severely impacted by lead poisoning. Cordoba would be a very good place for fair minded research into the question at hand.

Argentina is certainly not going to initiate such research. If we are secure enough about lead not being much of a factor in Raptor poisoning, maybe we should encourage the NRA or DU or some other pro-hunting outfit to utilize some of our donated dollars to check it out before the Greenies take it up...Geo
