“…The PCB and DDT levels found in the blubber and livers of the animals in our study were considered to be in the medium range in comparison with previous studies from other dolphin populations (Corsolini et al 1995;Stein et al 2003;Houde et al 2005;Fair et al 2010). Blubber PCB concentration in four of our dolphins was higher than the threshold concentration established for marine mammals (Kannan et al 2000).…”

“…Marine mammals from industrialized coastal regions with dense human populations have high concentrations of POPs in their tissues (O'Shea & Tanabe 2003, Houde et al 2005. Concern over the potential toxicity of POPs for marine mammals coincided with a series of mortality events during the late 1980s and 1990s attributed to morbillivirus.…”

“…Il faut donc interpréter les résultats de ce type de comparaison avec précaution et n'en tirer que les grandes évidences. C'est en effet ce qu'ont fait HOUDE et al (2005) dans leur article de synthèse en comparant les concentrations de POP chez les cétacés (Delphinoïdes). En bref, les auteurs rapportent que la population du béluga de l'ESL est généralement plus contaminée par les POP que les populations des bélugas de l'Arctique.…”
