Game animal and small terrestial mammals - suitable bioindicators for the pollution assessment in agrarian ecosystems

Original language description

Bioindicators of animal origin are an effective tool for the monitoring of environmental contamination of agrarian ecosystems which are known to contain considerably higher concentrations of some organic pollutants than other matrices, such as air, water, or soil. Small terrestrial mammals are also used in the monitoring of terrestrial ecosystems in some countries. The major objective of this study was to test the suitability of small terrestrial mammals for chemical monitoring. Considering the nutrition habits and lipid content in the skin and other tissues, the following species were selected: a) small terrestrial mammals - field vole (Microtus arvalis), bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus), wood mouse (Apodemus flavicollis), and yellow necked mouse (Apodemus sylvaticus); b) game animals -hare, roe deer, fallow deer; c) others - pheasant, carp, bee. Animals were collected in defined localities in South and Mid Moravia. Concentrations of PCB congeners were determined in the skin, muscl
