Toxicovigilance of Pesticides in Wildlife: Experience of the Sagir Network

The SAGIR network is organized under the authority of the Office National de la Chasse et de la Faune Sauvage (ONCFS National Hunting and Wildlife Office) and is primarily made of the regional hunting federations. Hunters and local network representatives are the keystone of the network. They are primarily responsible for the submission of wild animals found dead to a local veterinary diagnostic laboratory. There are SAGIR representatives in every part of France and, consequently, the network has a nation-wide impact.
