  • If an animal gets shot with lead, survives and runs away, there is now a wounded animal or an animal carcass containing lead somewhere in the wild.
    If it is wounded or freshly dead a carnivore will eat it and accumulate lead. That may be large carnivore or a smaller carnivore that later gets eaten by a bigger one. Birds tend to have stronger stomach acid that most mammals, allowing them to dissolve the lead better.
    Vultures having it the worst as they will eat any carcass and have the strongest acid.

    A fully grown forest is just full and can’t take up more CO2 unless you take some wood out. That wood need to be used in construction or turned into charcoal and buried to make sure it can’t be turned back into CO2 by rotting.
