Our review shows high mean lead concentrations in meat from small game killed with lead gunshot in Europe. Only the total lead gunshot ban in Denmark has substantially reduced these levels - partial bans elsewhere show little effect @RSPBScience @WWTconservation #LeadIsPoison
How contaminated with ammunition-derived lead is meat from European small game animals? Find out more in this Open Access article published in Ambio by D.J. Pain et al. who reviewed 3 decades of European data on lead concentrations in game meat.
