Abstract

The aim of the research was to conduct a comparative analysis of long-term studies (from 2016 to 2022) on mor-phological changes in the endocrine glands (thyroid gland and adrenal glands) in mammals (raccoon dog, river otter and white-breasted hedgehog) in the territory of high radioactive contamination and removal of anthropogenic load (in conditions of the Belarusian sector of the exclusion zone). The established morphological changes in the thyroid gland and adrenal glands in the studied mammals should be considered as a compensatory-adaptive reaction of the body aimed at maintaining metabolic homeostasis in the zone of radiation exposure.
