Non-target exposure of fishers to second generation anticoagulant rodenticides near and far industrial sites.
Unlike their “first-generation” counterparts, second-generation anticoagulant rodenticides (SGARs; for instance, bromodiolone) are more persistent, bioaccumulative and inherently toxic. An issue with this greater toxicity and persistence is that it increases their potential to impact non-target wildlife. With increasing natural resource extraction activities in northern Alberta, facilities capable of housing thousands of workers are needed, and each of these produce waste and attract rodent pests. Many companies now regularly deploy SGAR baits in a prophylactic manner. With this increased use, there is a resulting increased probability of exposure to rodenticide baits in non-target wildlife inhabiting areas of higher industrial development.
