Christopher W. Habeck, Miranda P. Figueras, Jean E. Deo et al. · Diversity · 2019-04 · open access
Home range (HR) studies are a particularly common approach to investigations of animal habitat use, resource availability, and response to management manipulation such as relocations. Terrapene carolina (Eastern box turtle) and its sister taxon T. ornata (Ornate box turtle) are especially popular…
- Tradeoffs with Growth and Behavior for Captive Box Turtles Head-Started with Environmental Enrichment
Sasha J. Tetzlaff, Jinelle H. Sperry, Brett A. DeGregorio · Diversity · 2019-03 · open access
Head-starting is a conservation strategy that entails releasing captive-reared animals into nature at sizes large enough to better resist post-release predation. However, efforts to maximize growth in captivity may jeopardize development of beneficial behaviors. Environmental enrichment can…

Gillreath-Brown A, Peres TM · PloS one · 2018-08 · open access
Turtle shell rattles are percussion instruments used by Indigenous peoples of the Americas in ceremonial contexts to keep rhythm. Archaeological investigations in the southeastern United States produced several complete and partial Eastern box turtle (Terrapene carolina) shell rattles from mortuary…

Adamovicz L, Leister K, Byrd J et al. · Conservation physiology · 2018-07 · open access
Introduction Blood gas analysis facilitates the clinical assessment of acid–base status, oxygenation and ventilation. It serves as a useful adjunctive diagnostic test for the assessment of individual animal health. In wildlife, blood gas panels are employed primarily to evaluate the physiologic…

Parlin AF, Nardone JA, Kelly Dougherty J et al. · Movement ecology · 2018-07 · open access
Background Animals move through their environment with a suite of inputs modified by ecological and physiological factors to determine navigation, migration, dispersal, foraging, and exploration. Furthermore, the environment needs to be navigable terrain and free of any major geographic barriers.…
