- Influence of temporary emigration on wood turtle (Glyptemys insculpta) detectability, with implications for abundance estimation.
Beard AN, Brown DJ, Hileman ET et al. · PloS one · 2024-04 · open access
Reliable population estimates are important for making informed management decisions about wildlife species. Standardized survey protocols have been developed for monitoring population trends of the wood turtle (Glyptemys insculpta), a semi-aquatic freshwater turtle species of conservation concern…
- Evidence of handedness in turtles
Caroline Honan, John B. Hopkins, Matthew W. H. Chatfield · Ecosphere · 2024-03 · open access
Abstract Although research supporting cerebral lateralization, or handedness, in non‐human vertebrates is expanding, reptiles represent one of the least studied. While assessing wood turtle shells, we noticed more dents, scrapes, chips, and other forms of damage on the right side of turtles than on…

John B. Hopkins, Cheryl A. Frederick, Derek Yorks et al. · Diversity · 2023-09 · open access
The diets and environments that individuals experience can vary greatly within and among wildlife populations. These individual experiences can be compared using the chemical signatures of animal tissues, which can differentiate animals into groups, including those raised in the wild versus those…

- Forensic Application of Stable Isotopes to Distinguish between Wild and Captive Turtles.
Hopkins JB 3rd, Frederick CA, Yorks D et al. · Biology · 2022-11 · open access
Wildlife traffickers often claim that confiscated animals were captive-bred rather than wild-caught to launder wild animals and escape prosecution. We used stable isotopes ( δ 13 C and δ 15 N) derived from the claw tips of wild wood turtles from Maine and captive wood turtles throughout the eastern…

Sierra R. Latham, Alexej P. K. Sirén, Leonard R. Reitsma · Canadian Journal of Zoology · 2022-09 · open access
The threats that affect a species often vary within its geographic range. Wood Turtles ( Glyptemys insculpta (Le Conte, 1830), formerly Clemmys insculpta (Le Conte, 1830)) are a species of concern due to widespread decline from anthropogenic threats. We studied two populations of Wood Turtles from…
