本文讨论了环境污染对宽吻海豚的影响。宽吻海豚(Tursioptruncatus)分布于全世界所有的寒温带至热带海域。这在地中海似乎很常见。成年女性肝脏汞含量较高，其次为肾、脑、肠、心、子宫、肺和胎盘。在小牛和新生儿中，肝脏中的汞含量也最高。除了肝脏外，新生儿体内的水平略高于小牛，肺、脑和心脏中也检测到了略高的水平。
This article discusses the effect of environmental contamination in Bottlenose Dolphin. Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) occurs in all cold temperate to tropical seas worldwide. It appears to be common in the Mediterranean Sea. In the adult female high concentrations of mercury were found in liver followed by kidney, brain, intestine, heart, uterus, lung and placenta. In the calf and neonate too, the highest mercury levels were observed in liver. Slightly higher levels in the neonate than in the calf were detected in addition to liver, also in lung, brain, and heart.
