Co-exposures to trace elements and polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) impacts North American river otter (Lontra canadensis) baculum

Highlights • Baculum bone health and liver contaminants were evaluated in river otter.

• Protective and deleterious effects were detected for select contaminants.

• Alkylated PACs as well as the metals Tl and Cd exerted the strongest influence.

• Bone stiffness and peak load values were highest at low impact sites.
