概要	During a screening of the Cd concentrations in the game meat commercially available in the Hiroshima wide area urban districts, some of the meat had contained more than 0.05 mg/kg. We set up the two areas having the agricultural landscapes within the districts, captured wildlife and measured the Cd in their muscle and kidney. The distribution of Cd in the body confirmed the higher concentrations in kidney than in muscle. The muscle concentrations of all the captured wild boars were less than 0.05 mg/kg, while their average concentrations in the kidney were 1.97±1.67 mg/kg. To find out the source of Cd accumulated into the mammals, the Cd levels in the soil of their habitat were measured. As the Cd values in soil have been low at the examined areas, other sources of the Cd accumulated in the wildlife could be suspected. To screen the game meat in the agricultural landscapes by the criterion dose of 0.05 mg/kg was informative for the risk assessment of the humans exposed to Cd.
