Leland Brown and Chris Parish of the North American Non-Lead Partnership join us to discuss benefits of using non-lead ammunition for hunting, the science behind the impacts of lead ammunition on non-target species, the effectiveness of non-lead ammunition, tips and considerations for making the switch, dispelling common misconceptions about non-lead ammunition, why encouraging voluntary adoptions of non-lead ammunition by hunters can be more effective than mandating it, and what their organization does to educate hunters about the benefits of using non-lead ammunition.
