was first noticed in the early 1950s when the black duck population was approxi mately double what it is now since 1960 it has been notic ed that the number of adult birds outnumbers the young indicating incubation or brood rearing has been unsuccessful pollution is felt to be one of the causes by removing plant and animal food and thereby lowering the quality of some breeding and wintering aeas lead poisoning is also a factor the ducks swallow shot from the bottoms of ponds and marshes along with grit which is essential to digestion three e days can prove fatal it is estimated about one per cent of the duck population along the atlantic flyway die from lead poisoning each year another cause of the decline is the fillingin of marshes and ponds or deepening shallow portions of lakes for faster boat travel shorter seasons and decreas ed bag limits would do little to solve thp problem nesting grounds will have to be im proved and pollution control led more effectively in order to increase the number of young birds which survive to carry on the species a solution is important since 20 to 25 per cent of the hunt ers kill along the atlantic fly- way is made up of black ducks
