Wildlife are exposed to an increasing number and diversity of chemical pollutants.Chemical pollutants can elicit a range sublethal effects on individual organisms, but research how these contaminants affect social interactions animal groups is severely lacking.It imperative that perspectives from behavioural ecology ecotoxicology integrated, increase our understanding contaminant individuals might cascade group-level processes.We present conceptual framework for researchers practitioners guide the study emergence, organisation, function groups. Chemical pollution among fastest-growing agents global change. Synthetic chemicals with diverse modes-of-action being detected in tissues wildlife pervade entire food webs. Although such lacking. Here we synthesise two related, largely segregated fields – examine pathways by which could disrupt processes govern self-organisation, collective Our review provides roadmap prioritising within context sociality highlights important methodological advancements future research. Pollution arising production consumption synthetic now outpaces other environmental megatrends (e.g., rising CO2 emissions [1.Bernhardt E.S. et al.Synthetic as change.Front. Ecol.
