Public commentary is now open for the proposal to ban lead shot for hunters in BC
The proposal to ban lead shot for hunters in BC is up for public commentary. It is more expensive to switch to copper bullets but Golden Eagles, Bald Eagles and Turkey Vultures and other raptors die from lead poisoning every year from eating carcasses contaminated by lead. Please voice your comments HERE on the BC Gov't website to help get this ban enacted. Commentary closes on Feb 13th at 4:30pm
