Millions of birds in America are suffering miserably from the affects of lead poisoning. It's something that is 100% preventable by requring non-lead hunting ammunitoin. A petition requring hunters to use non-lead hunting ammuniton went around and gained a lot of support, but was shot down by the EPA. They claimed they didn't have the authority to regualate such a thing under the Toxic Substance Control Act.
I choose this essay because I love animals, and it makes me so sad if they are being harmed in any way.
