摘要：
This brief paper summarises current knowledge concerning the effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals in wildlife, and indicates that, with a few exceptions, we do not yet have good evidence that endocrine disruption is causing serious effects at the population level. The paper suggests that more field and semi-field studies are required to address this issue.
