Anti-Lead Petition Rejected By Fish and Wildlife
From Guns.com:
In a surprise to many, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service recently rebuffed demands from a series of environmentalist groups to phase out the use of traditional ammunition and fishing tackle on public land.
The FWS, part of the Department of Interior, reports to Debra Haaland, a former Democrat lawmaker from New Mexico who was backed for her current position by well-known anti-hunting groups such as WildEarth Guardians and the HSUS. In 2022, the agency was presented with a 63-page petition from the Center for Biological Diversity – an activist organization that pro-gun groups have characterized as one that “fights against regulated sport hunting at nearly every opportunity” – to ban lead ammo and fishing gear on the more than 500 million acres of federal lands by 2024.
More Federal Lands Open For Hunting
From Guns.com:
The proposed rule would include big changes such opening Green Bay National Wildlife Refuge in Wisconsin to hunting and fishing for the first time and opening of Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge in Wyoming to deer and elk hunting for the first time. Other facilities would see smaller expansions with the net result of some 1.4 million new acres of public land opened for access to sportsmen.
