* Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (#PFAS) are global environmental contaminants.
* PFAS are detected in wildlife globally.
* There is concordance between findings on PFAS health effects in wildlife and humans.
* Humans can be regarded as a sentinel species for adverse health impacts of PFAS.
* Wildlife conservation must consider health impacts of chemical contaminants.
