Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada, 1975DDT, PCBs, chlordane, and dieldrin levels were measured in blubber of 18 cetaceans, including humpback, sperm, dense-beaked, Atlantic, and Pacific pilot whales, and five species of dolphins. All had significant residue levels, ranging from 1.1 to 1023 ppm ΣDDT (wet weight basis), and 0.7–147 ppm PCBs. These levels are high enough to justify efforts to
