I get bilious reading some of the crap written by so called experts on lead and its effects. Raptors dying because of eating lead in Prairie dogs? Has this fool ever seen a prairie dog? Over the years we have hosted hunters here who have killed prairie dogs in the thousands. I have YET to evidence a prairie dog big enough to retain a bullet traveling at 2400 ft secs plus.Since I am OUTSIDE every day in the field every day, some of the experts should try getting out more, I have never seen a dead raptor that hasnt clearly been killed by some other means. Power lines and cars being the most common. When working fields the tractor, any tractor is followed by raptors in fairly large numbers eating bugs worms and mice served by their friendly farmer host. We have more than ever. They all quote "read the papers" Bullshit, get out and look..
