Abstract
For the first time the concentrations of copper, zinc, mercury, cadmium and lead in hair samples of the Mediterranean Monk Seal, one of the world's rarest mammals, were determined. The hair samples were collected in the absence of the animals from six caves located in the Ionian Sea, Greece. Our data suggest the importance of hair analysis as a useful indicator for heavy metals in these rare animals.
