I’m all for conservation efforts, and I fully support lead shot ban in wetlands and any shallows. I guess I struggle to see *how* it would be ingested and by what wildlife. Here they cite loons and seals

They also warn that “These weights are also the most likely to result in human exposure from, for example, an angler clamping a (lead) weight onto the line with his or her teeth." to which I audibly chuckled.
