Are you busy prepping for deer opener this weekend? It supposed to be a big year for deer harvest with up to estimated 200,000 deer to be harvested.
As you go out to hunt, please remember that lead bullets pose the risk of lead poisoning for your families and for the wildlife that eat the gut piles left behind. MN has banned lead am******on on SNA's and State Parks to protect the wildlife present.
Did you know that lead bullets fragment as they hits the deer's body and can scatter up to 14 inches from the bullet entry point?
To reduce your family's exposure AND to protect the eagles and other wildlife that may feed on the gut pile left behind, consider using copper bullets this year! Copper is an accurate and effective replacement!
There's nothing worse than trying to put good clean meat on the table, only to have to think about lead contaminants! Learn more here: https://huntingwithnonlead.org/
