Lead Toxicity in Birds
An estimated 16 million birds die of lead poisoning each year in the United States.  The ingestion of shotgun pellets is the most common source of lead poisoning in birds, however, the consumption of other lead objects such as lead bullets and fishing sinkers are also lethal.
