- Abstract
The article presents a study which evaluates the incidence of organochlorine pollutants like Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the Spanish Imperial Eagle. The study uses 34 infertile Spanish Imperial Eagle eggs gathered at Doñana National Park in Spain and collected after failure to hatch. Results show that mean values of PCBs in predatory birds were not related to reductions of breeding populations.
