30-6 Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 I guess not many of us have not ate lead shot by accident and pass it out safely due to their round and smooth make up. While cleaning a hmr rabbit sometimes there are fragmented copper /lead bits. Would they pass out safely or is there a possibility of them getting stuck somewhere in the digestive tract if missed on cleaning, due to their raggedness ? On a recent MRI questionnaire it asked if I had ever been shot or subject to shrapnel wound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vampire Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 Bird of prey centre near me will not except lead shot birds only steel,so maybe some lead stays in,so if you eat game maybe best to let them know before scan as it wouldnt be pretty if you have metal in you.

The Mighty Prawn Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 MRI always ask about metal as it can rip it out which isn't pretty! I'd say avoid copper shards as like you say they are sharp enough to cut your insides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
