In birds, copper and zinc concentrations are positively correlated in kidneys of the willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus, Wren et al. 1994) and in kidneys and livers of common murres (Uria aalge Stewart et al. 1994).

White-tailed sea eagles collected from the Baltic Sea contained 280 ng PBBs/g lipid weight (Jansson et al. 1987). The concentration of PBBs in common guillemots Uria aalge) collected in 1979 1981 from the Baltic Sea was 160 ng/g lipid (Jansson et al. 1987). Brunnich s guillemot Uria lomvid), collected from Svalbard in the Arctic, contained50 ng PBBs/g lipid (Jansson et al. 1987).
