Interior's Zinke removes Obama lead ban on federal lands

I'm liking what this new admin is doing

"But the Obama administration’s ban on lead ammunition was meant to protect wildlife from lead poisoning. As many as 20 million birds and other animals die of lead poisoning each year as a result of the nearly 100,000 tons of lead that hunters, fishers and other sportsmen use, according to the Center for Biological Diversity."



20 million? Really? More "Fake News"

"Other Sportsmen" Who are they?

I am glad he came riding into town!

Oh they weren't lying....they simply omitted the fact that they all died from "high velocity" lead poisoning....

"Center For Biological Diversity"


Really...?

I like the things I see from this administration.

Unfortunately, I doubt this affects state bans on hunting with lead projectiles (if said federal land is within such a state), e.g. the Peoples' Republic of California.

The Center for Biological Diversity does lots of stuff up here. Put a stop to black footed ferret release on private land because APHIS wanted to designate them experimental so no incidental take would be criminal. Took that language out so the landowners said no to ferrets. Haven't heard of them really doing anything good, just litigation. They stick their nose into everything up here that deals with wildlife or the environment.

"Center For Biological Diversity" I googled them. Looks to me like another anti hunting group.
