Abstract

Many jurisdictions have regulatory frameworks that seek to reduce the effects of environmental exposures of anthropogenic chemicals on terrestrial wildlife (i.e., mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians). The frameworks apply for new and existing chemicals, including pesticides (prospective assessments), and to environmental contamination from releases (retrospective risk assessments). Relatively recently, there have been many scientific advances that could improve risk estimates for wildlife. Here, we briefly describe current regulations from North America (United States and Canada) and from Europe that include risk assessments for wildlife to ascertain whether they are conducive to the use of emerging science and new methods. We also provide examples where new and emerging science may be used to improve wildlife risk characterization and identify areas in need of future research.

在现有监管框架内，利用新兴科学为野生动物风险定性提供信息。

许多辖区都有监管框架，旨在减少人为化学品环境暴露对陆生野生动物（即哺乳动物、鸟类、爬行动物和两栖动物）的影响。这些框架适用于新的和现有的化学品，包括杀虫剂（前瞻性评估），以及排放造成的环境污染（回顾性风险评估）。最近，许多科学进步可以改善对野生动物的风险评估。在此，我们简要介绍了北美（美国和加拿大）和欧洲包含野生动物风险评估的现行法规，以确定这些法规是否有利于使用新兴科学和新方法。我们还举例说明了新兴科学可用于改善野生动物风险特征的情况，并确定了需要进行未来研究的领域。Integr Environ Assess Manag 2024;00:1-15.© 2024 加拿大国王陛下及作者。综合环境评估与管理 © 2024 环境毒理学与化学学会（SETAC）。经加拿大环境与气候变化部部长许可转载。本文由美国政府雇员撰写，其作品在美国属于公共领域。

期刊介绍： Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management (IEAM) publishes the science underpinning environmental decision making and problem solving. Papers submitted to IEAM must link science and technical innovations to vexing regional or global environmental issues in one or more of the following core areas: Science-informed regulation, policy, and decision making Health and ecological risk and impact assessment Restoration and management of damaged ecosystems Sustaining ecosystems Managing large-scale environmental change Papers published in these broad fields of study are connected by an array of interdisciplinary engineering, management, and scientific themes, which collectively reflect the interconnectedness of the scientific, social, and environmental challenges facing our modern global society: Methods for environmental quality assessment; forecasting across a number of ecosystem uses and challenges (systems-based, cost-benefit, ecosystem services, etc.); measuring or predicting ecosystem change and adaptation Approaches that connect policy and management tools; harmonize national and international environmental regulation; merge human well-being with ecological management; develop and sustain the function of ecosystems; conceptualize, model and apply concepts of spatial and regional sustainability Assessment and management frameworks that incorporate conservation, life cycle, restoration, and sustainability; considerations for climate-induced adaptation, change and consequences, and vulnerability Environmental management applications using risk-based approaches; considerations for protecting and fostering biodiversity, as well as enhancement or protection of ecosystem services and resiliency.
