Abstract
The aim of the present research is to study the content of lead in feathers and bone samples in eight carcasses of Griffon Vultures (Gyps fulvus, Habitz 1870) from a region in southwestern Bulgaria. In order to exclude surface lead contamination, the feather samples were preliminary examined by X-ray fluorescent spectroscopy. The samples of lead concentration in feathers and bones were analyzed by the methods of ICP-MS Spectrometry. The results displayed residues of lead in the feathers and bones only in some individuals.
