Fecal genotyping and contaminant analyses reveal variation in individual river otter exposure to localized persistent contaminants.

Environmental toxicology and chemistry - 1 Feb 2010

Abstract excerpt

The present study investigated polyhalogenated aromatic hydrocarbon (PHAH) concentrations in feces of known river otters (Lontra canadensis) along the coast of southern Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Specifically, we combined microsatellite genotyping of DNA from feces for individual identification with fecal contaminant analyses to evaluate exposure of 23 wild otters to organochlorine pesticides...
