AB  - Increases in the levels of environmental contaminants are reflected in wild 
      animals, which are early indicators of pollution. Hatay is an ecologically 
      important region with a high intensity of industrial and agricultural activities. 
      This study aimed to investigate the contamination levels of metals and 
      organochlorine pesticides associated with environmental pollution in tissues of 
      wild boars from Turkey. The highest mean levels (mg kg(-1)) of metals were 0.05 
      for As, 0.51 for Cd, 6.30 for Cu, 0.07 for Hg, 0.54 for Ni, and 0.57 for Pb in 
      kidney tissues and 0.22 for Cr, 353.38 for Fe, 2.86 for Mn, and 46.76 for Zn in 
      liver tissues. The Cd and Pb levels exceeded the maximum residue limits (MRLs) in 
      some tissues. Among the studied pesticides, only p,p'-DDE contamination was 
      quantified, and the mean levels were 3.6, 0.1, and 0.5 microg kg(-1) in liver, 
      kidney, and muscle tissues respectively. In conclusion, Hatay Province requires 
      monitoring in terms of environmentally important contaminants, mainly Cd, Pb, and 
      DDT isomers.
