[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 178448, member: 8"] The journal referenced is a well respected peer reviewed journal. [url=http://www.cbse.ucsc.edu/news/2006/08/31/condor/index.shtml]CBSE News: Molecular fingerprinting leads to culprit in condor lead poisoning[/url] Lead poisoning in birds, particularly waterfowl is very well documented. There have been several studies of birds such as robins which nested and ate worms along highways were leaded gasoline was used and the effects and mortality rates from that diet. I personally have used several of those studies when determining if a piece of contaminated property is hazardous to the animals and needs to be remediated. If an engineer is skillful (even if he sometimes mispells a word) it is possible to perform a very decent risk analysis for a wide variety of animals for a wide variety of contaminants. Evolution is a slow process whereas overpopulation removing critical habitat is a much faster process and lead poisoning still faster yet. [/QUOTE]
