An immature bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) was submitted to the University of Maryland, College Park, for clinical examination. The bird was thin, had green watery feces, and was unable to maintain itself in upright posture. Following radiography, the bird went into respiratory distress and died. Numerous lead shot were recovered from the gizzard, and chemical analysis of liver and kidney tissue revealed 22.9 and 11.3 ppm lead, respectively. The clinical signs, necropsy findings, and chemical analysis of the eagle were compatible with lead toxicosis.
一只未成熟的白头海雕（Haliaeetus leucocephalus）被送到马里兰大学帕克分校进行临床检查。这只鸟很瘦，粪便呈绿色水样，无法保持直立姿势。经X光检查后，这只鸟出现呼吸窘迫并死亡。从砂囊中发现了大量铅弹，对肝脏和肾脏组织的化学分析显示，铅含量分别为22.9 ppm和11.3 ppm。这只白头海雕的临床症状、尸检结果和化学分析结果均符合铅中毒的情况。
