The screening method for use of wild pheasant feathers in the monitoring of environmental pollution with heavy metals

Abstract: It has been shown that some species of birds, especially herbivorous and territorial ones, are more sensitive to the effects of toxic substances compared to mammals. This allows for taking integrated actions in the area of environmental protection and monitoring in a holistic sense (at various trophic levels). Therefore, this study aimed to assess the possibility of using pheasant feathers (Phasianuscolchicus) as a potential bioindicator ofenvironmental contamination, and thus to determine the concentration of… Show more
