Ban Lead Ammunition to Protect Wildlife

Target: Deb Haaland, Secretary of the Interior, United States

Goal: Ban the use of lead ammunition to protect wildlife from lead poisoning, which can cause severe health problems and death.

Lead ammunition is a significant threat to wildlife, as lead poisoning can cause severe health problems and death. This toxic substance is commonly used in hunting and shooting sports, which results in lead fragments being left behind in animal carcasses, soil, and water sources. When wildlife consume lead fragments, they can suffer from a range of symptoms, including impaired reproduction, nerve damage, and weakened immune systems.

To protect wildlife from lead poisoning, we need to ban the use of lead ammunition and promote alternatives that are safe for both wildlife and humans. This will not only protect wildlife populations, but also help maintain the ecological health of our natural habitats and protect public health.

We urge Secretary Haaland to take immediate action and ban the use of lead ammunition. By doing so, we can protect wildlife from lead poisoning and promote sustainable hunting and shooting practices.

Through the implementation of this ban and promotion of alternative ammunition, we can protect wildlife from lead poisoning. Urge Secretary Haaland to take action and support these efforts.

We believe in the power of community voices, and we hope to bring comments back permanently and without restrictions. But to do that, we need to reduce our reliance on ad revenue.
