Hunters say non-toxic ammo hard to find as 7th lead-poisoned eagle found

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/bald-eagles-lead-ammo-hunters-cobequid-wildife-rehabilitation-1.4025999

Quotes:

"You'd be hard-pressed to walk into a department store today and put your hand on a box of non-lead ammunition..."

"...getting a consistent supply from manufacturers of non-lead bullets on his shelves in a calibre his customers are looking for is difficult."

"You need to know what you're looking for, you need to know the brand and what it's called. There is no major advertising campaign on the go right now..."

"...a wider ban on lead ammunition, including bullets, would fix the demand side of the problem and make the production of non-lead ammunition more cost-effective for manufacturers."

 
Even when it is available, there's nothing on the more expensive package to indicate the ammunition is a non-lead product. (Colleen Jones/CBC)
