Lead shot ban urged as iron shot tested for waterfowl
National Wildlife Federation and other groups push a nationwide ban on lead shot for waterfowl. Trials this fall cover four flyways to compare iron shot with lead, after past studies showed widespread lead poisoning from pellet ingestion in geese and ducks. The Fish and Wildlife Service notes severe losses in 1972, spurring calls for a safe substitute and continued field evaluation.
