If council decides to move the site, he said that neighboring municipalities should be in- volved in the decision, "L can see the advantages and,disadvant- ages of moving the tomb.

Hunters warned against kidneys The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources is again warning hunters not to eat the kidney and liver from moose and deer after higher -than -normal levels of cadmium were discovered during testing by researchers. Cadmium is a heavy metal which may be toxic at higher levels of exposure. It occurs naturally at low levels in the eco -system but may reach higher levels of concentration in some areas. Experiments have shown that high concentrations of cadmium can cause kidney or liver damage in mammals, Cadmium concentrates in some longer -living species such as moose and white-tailed deer, The World Health Organization (W HO/ has set a limit of .05 mg per week for human consumption of cadmium. To ensure that the public does not exceed that limit, the ministry is recommending that the kidneys and liver of moose and deer not be consumed. "This is a precautionary measure." said Natural Resources Minister Vincent Kerrio. "I want to emphasize, as well, that our tests indicate that the moose and deer meat from our sampled areas contains low enough cadmium levels to be acceptable by W HO 'tendards " Ministry researchers discovered above normal levels of cadmium in the kidneys and livers of some moose in south-central Ontario in 1984. Follow-up tests were conducted in regions across the province. Dieing the 1984 and 1985 hunting season, a total of 306 moose were sampled, and in 1985 290 while -tailed deer were also tested. Sources of environmental cadmium in Ontario have not been defined to date Further sampling for regional differences in Ontario may help to define sources. A province -wide study on cadmium levels conducted by the Ministry of Natural Resources will continue with help from the Ontario Mhilstryof Agriculture and Food and the Ministry of Health. "We will continue the sampling and analyses program in the 1986 hunting season to further investigate regional differences in cadmium levels," Mr. Kerrie said, "In addition to this program, my ministry is involved in various co-operative studies with other government agencies and univer- sities to determine the pathways of r'admium in the ecosystem."
