Although reports of urban populations of amphibians and reptiles are increasingly common, the viability of such populations and information on threats to their continued existence remain less well known. From 2010–2018, we studied the nesting ecolo

Sea-level rise due to climate change is a major threat to coastal ecosystems worldwide. Current management to reduce beach erosion often focuses on protecting human structures and research on effects on wildlife is lacking. Using a combination of hie

Bog Turtles (Glyptemys muhlenbergii) are some of the most imperiled turtles in North America, and because of threats posed by habitat loss and collection for the pet trade, the species currently is listed as threatened under the U.S. Endangered Speci
