California Makes History in Banning Lead Hunting Ammunition

SACRAMENTO, Calif.–(ENEWSPF)–October 11, 2013.  Gov. Jerry Brown today signed historic legislation that will protect the state’s condors, eagles and other wildlife from lead poisoning by requiring the use of nonlead ammunition for all hunting by 2019. By signing Assembly Bill 711 California becomes the first state in the country to require the use of nontoxic bullets and shot for all hunting.
