How do you suppose the tracker became, "wrapped in lead"?
If a shooter or game keeper shot it what makes you think they'd be stupid enough to remove the tracker, wrap it in lead, (how do you even do that?) and leave it to be found?
The lead in cartridges is in the form of tiny pellets. Your post makes no sense and the story smacks of an anti shooting, "plant". And I say this as a disintetrested party.
I have no idea how or who wrapped it in lead, but lead is a very flexible and easily obtainable metal.
Why would anyone do that? A very simple answer. Lead would mean the signal from the tracker would be blocked. That’s one of the properties of lead - it’s why it’s used to line the cases that contain nuclear waste.
Sounds like a very deliberate act to me. Wonder how many more such tags are lying around the countryside, waterways and seas, wrapped in a toxic metal?
