Description: For millions of people, game meat is their primary source of protein, but if the animal is shot using lead (Pb) ammunition, its meat can be toxic. The lead in the ammunition also finds its way into wildlife, ecosystems, and the global food chain, taking the poison far beyond the gun barrel. There are non-lead alternatives, but hunters are slow to switch, and lobby groups are opposing. A group of concerned scientists is hoping to change this. One, Jon M. Arnemo from the Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences, is a fellow hunter.
