In the present study, the levels of OCs in the liver of predatory birds were evaluated. Liver samples were collected from 80 birds (9 different species) found dead or dying in the territory of Calabria region of Southern Italy from 1993 to 1997. Collected data were compared to data already available regarding the OCs contamination in predatory birds from Italy and other European countries.
