Firefighting chemical found in sea lion and fur seal pups

A chemical that the NSW government has recently partially banned in firefighting has been found in the pups of endangered Australian sea lions and in Australian fur seals.
The finding represents another possible blow to Australian sea lions survival. Hookworm and tuberculosis already threaten their small and diminishing population, which has fallen by more than 60 percent over four decades.
The new research - part of a long-term health study of seals and sea lions in Australia - identified the chemicals in animals at multiple colonies in Victoria and South Australia from 2017 to 2020.
As well as in pups, the chemicals (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances - PFAS ) were detected in juvenile animals and in an adult male. There was also evidence of transfer of the chemicals from mothers to newborns. ....

Firefighting chemicals found in sea lion and fur seal pups


As well as in pups, the chemicals (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances – ‘PFAS’) were detected in juvenile animals and in an adult male. There was also evidence of transfer of the chemicals from mothers to newborns.
PFAS have been reported to cause cancer, reproductive and developmental defects, endocrine disruption and can compromise immune systems. Exposure can occur through many sources including through contaminated air, soil and water, and common household products containing PFAS. In addition to being used in firefighting foam, they are frequently found in stain repellents, polishes, paints and coatings.
The researchers believe the seals and sea lions ingested the chemicals through their fish, crustacean, octopus and squid diets. ....
