ABSTRACT
To gain insight into mercury exposure in Bald Eagles ( Haliaeetus leucocephalus ) in Iowa, US we collected blood from 22 rehabilitation eagles in 2012-13. The geometric mean blood mercury level was 0.144 µg/g (95% confidence interval: 0.066-0.314) and was at the lower end of the range of levels reported elsewhere.
