But hunters that use lead bullets may actually be harming people they love, as well as pregnant women and children who may be relying on food pantries. HealthCetera producer and host Diana Mason, RN, talked about this issue with Peter Nye, a retired wildlife biologist who worked for the New York State Department of Conversation for 40 years, leading the endangered species program and overseeing many research and management project involving all of the state’s rarest species.
