Bioaccumulation is the buildup or storage of substances (such as contaminants) in the bodies of animals over time. Bioaccumulation takes place through eating other animals and drinking water containing these contaminants. Contaminants that bioaccumulate either do not change or are very slow to change into a form that can be digested and eliminated by the animal.

| bioaccumulation |
The accumulation by organisms of contaminants through ingestion or contact with skin or respiratory tissue. The net accumulation of a substance by an organism as a result of uptake from all environmental sources. As an organism ages, it can accumulate more of these substances, either from its food or directly from the environment. Bioaccumulation of a toxic substance has the potential to cause harm to organisms, particularly to those at the top of the food chain.
