Current levels of radiocaesium in game were determined. Samples were taken in 10 regions and measured for their ¹³⁷Cs and ¹³⁴Cs activity concentrations. ¹³⁷Cs was found at measurable levels in the samples analysed. ¹³⁴Cs activity concentrations were negligible (below minimum detectable activity - MDA). The ¹³⁷Cs activity concentrations were very variable between and among the animal species even in the same region and ranged from MDA values to some tens of Bq/kg. An effective dose received by the most exposed populations was assessed.
