Guiana Dolphins (Sotalia guianensis) as Marine Ecosystem Sentinels: Ecotoxicology and Emerging Diseases
Historically, human activities have impacted cetacean populations; such activities have included commercial fishing operations, overexploitation of marine species, habitat degradation, and commercial harvesting. As a result, many species are now classified as being threatened (Gulland and Hall 2007; Sherman 2000). Additionally, most species are exposed to anthropogenic contaminants, even those inhabiting areas far from human activities (Aono et al. 1997; Bard 1999). Such exposure may lead to health problems, such as impairment of immunological resistance, increased susceptibility to infectious diseases, and reduced reproductive fitness (Ross and Birnbaum 2003; Tanabe 2002).
