The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, as part of its normal wildlife assessment program across the province, has discovered higher -than -normal concen- trations of the element cadmium in the wildlife food chain in one section of central Ontario. • Initial test results of kidney samples taken from moose in the Kearney area, north of Huntsville, show a broad range of cadmium concentrations in the moose kidneys, ranging from mere traces to levels which are higher than those deemed accep- table by the World Health Organization. "These very recent test results are preliminary, and are specific to a certain area of Ontario," Natural Resources Minister Vincent Kerrio said recently. "As a result, we have embarked on an ac- celerated program of more intensive and systematic sampling to determine the ex- tent of this situation. As a precautionary measure, until further studies are com- pleted, we advise hunters not to consume illthe kidneys and liver frorn moose taken, particularly in the Algonquin area." In high concentrations, cadmium could be toxic to the animal, and could cause kidney damage to anyone who consumes its kidneys, or large amounts of its liver. Kidneys and liver from moose should not be eaten, at least until further results are available, the Minister said. Cadmium ingested by animals ,through the food chain becomes increasingly con- centrated in the kidneys as the animal ages. It is known that lesser concentrations also develop in the liver, but studies on moose liver tissue in Ontario have, not yet been undertaken. The Ministry of Natural Resources has launched a comprehensive provincewide study to expand its understanding of the significance of the findings. This includes collecting further data on moose, as well as while -tailed deer, during the 1985 hunting season. The ministries of Agriculture and Food, Health, and Environment, as well as the federal government, are being consulted on the implications of these preliminary fin- dings. Results of this study will be made available before the 1986 hunting season. Grass drag races start VARNA - On October 13, Hully Gully Yamaha and CRC Productions will host the second Grass Drag Race for snowmobiles this season. Snowmobile grass drag racing offers both spectators and participants a great deal of excitement which was demonstrated at the recent September 29 race.

All classes will be racing, from the crate stock classes through the modified, right up to the wild and hairy open modified machines. A snowmobile right off the showroom floor can race in the crate stock class. It is also a good way for potential racers to try racing under controlled conditions.

For the second year in a row this compe- tent filly has turned into a bearcat in the last couple of months of the sires stakes season. The crisp autumn air must do something to her system because all she has been doing is trotting up a storm. Cranberry Hill has won the last four Ontario Sires Stakes for her class at Kingston, Greenwood, Flamboro, and Hanover. That's not all though - she also tangled with open competition recently at Mohawk Raceway in the Simcoe Stakes and set a track record of 2:00.4/5 in her elimina- tion. Cranberry Hill is owned by Charles Juravinski (the president of Flamboro Downs) and Gordon Rumpel of Port Perry (the owner of 1984 Horse of the Year and $2,000,000 winner On The Road Again), and is trained by Dr. John Hayes, of Legal Notice fame. Briscos Girl, a daughter of Brisco Hanover, has also rounded into ship-shape form recently. Trained by Stuart Cochrane of Milton for co-owner Gabriele Giam- marino of Downsview, this filly has cashed in a couple of sires stakes wins this year, the most recent at Flamboro Downs in 2:02.4/5. Another Brisco Hanover filly to watch for is Brisco Maud. Trained by Gary Bourgon for owners Cantario Farms of Campbellville and Robert Smith of Brampton, Brisco Maud has • nailed a 6-2-3 standing in 14 outings this year as well as earnings of close to $90,000. The following night, October 12, the three- year-old pacing fillies of the Ontario Sires Stakes will'be fired up for competition worth about $100,000 in prize money. This too, will be their season's finale, so you can bet the racing will be tough.
