Book excerpt: Non-toxic shot regulations have been established for certain waterfowl hunting zones since 1976 to reduce waterfowl lead poisoning losses by replacing toxic lead with steel shot for duck and goose hunting. During the 1979 waterfowl season, lead and steel shot shells were tested for duck hunting at the Schell-Osage Wildlife Management Area in Southwestern Missouri. The comprehensive study was a cooperative effort between the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Missouri Department of Conservation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books have now been published in the broad field of environmental toxicology. However, to date, none of have presented the often fascinating stories of the wildlife science, and the steps along the way from discovery of problems caused by environmental pollutants to the regulatory and non-regulatory efforts to address the problems. This book provides case by case examinations of how toxic chemical effects on wildlife have brought about policy and regulatory decisions, and positive changes in environmental conditions. Wild animal stories, whether they are about the disappearance of charismatic top predators, or of grossly deformed embryos or frogs, provide powerful symbols that can and have captured the public's imagination and have resulted in increased awareness by decision makers. It is the intent of this book to present factual and balanced overviews and summaries of the science and the subsequent regulatory processes that followed to effect change (or not). We cover a variety of chemicals and topics beginning with an update of the classic California coastal DDT story of eggshell thinning and avian reproduction to more recent cases, such as the veterinarian pharmaceutical that has brought three species of Asian vultures to the brink of extinction. Researchers, regulators, educators, NGOs and the general public will find valuable insights into the processes and mechanisms involved both in environmental scientific investigation and in efforts to effect positive change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wing bones of 4,190 ducks of seven species collected in 1972 and 1973 were analyzed for lead to provide a base line for lead burdens and to determine geographic patterns of lead exposure in these species. Lead residues ranged from trace amounts to 361 ppm and reflected the history of exposure to lead from ingested shotshell pellets and other sources. Wing bones of adults contained higher residues than did those of immatures. Levels were lower in birds from the Central Flyway than in those from other flyways.

Download or read book Toxicity of Lead and Proposed Substitute Shot to Mallards written by Patuxent Wildlife Research Center and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poisoning of North American waterfowl resulting from the ingestion of lead shot by ducks, geese, and swans causes an estimated annual mortality of 2% to 3% of the population. To alleviate this problem the search for a suitable substitute for lead has been underway since the early 1950's. Proposed substitutes for lead shot were evaluated in a series of acut toxicity tests with pen-reared mallards. Most candidate materials were as toxic to ducks as commercial lead shot. Coating or alloying lead with other materials only delayed mortality among dosed ducks.
