dc.description.abstract | Golden jackal is considered a top predator in many human dominated
landscapes of South-eastern Europe. Concentrations of seven trace
elements (Pb, Cd, Zn, Cu, Fe, Mn, and Ni) in livers of 129 specimens of
golden jackals (Canis aureus) from six localities from Serbia were
analysed. Both, sex and localities had no significant effects on
concentrations of any metals. Lead concentrations, both average (9.59
mg/kg) and maximal values (23.00 mg/kg), were higher than those found in
other mammal predator species. Furthermore, concentrations of essential
trace elements (copper, iron and manganese) were also significantly
higher than those reported by other researchers. Only zinc had
significantly lower concentration (66.36 mg/kg), while cadmium was
similar (14.89 mg/kg) with those reported in the literature. The jackal,
being a wild omnivorous mammal at the top of the food chain with high
adaptability and other supportive ecological features, is a good
bioindicator of environmental contamination. | en |
