Abstract Understanding the home range of imperiled reptiles is important to the design of conservation and recovery efforts. Despite numerous home range studies for the Threatened timber rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus), many have limited sample sizes

Many temperate reptiles survive winter by using subterranean refugia until external conditions become suitable for activity. Determining when to emerge from refugia relies on the ability to interpret when above-ground environmental conditions are sur

Predators affect prey through mortality, and prey respond by employing antipredatory strategies. Although leatherback sea turtles Dermochelys coriacea are the largest sea turtle, they are susceptible to shark predation. Females lay multiple clutches

Sea turtles spend much of their life in aquatic environments, but critical portions of their life cycle, such as nesting and hatching, occur in terrestrial environments, suggesting that it may be important for them to detect sounds in both air and wa

Although most dives of emperor penguins (Aptenodytes forsteri) are less than 100 m, penguins from the Cape Washington colony regularly perform deep dives > 400 m. To evaluate the significance and location of these deep dives of birds on foraging trip

Effective transboundary conservation of highly migratory marine animals requires international management cooperation as well as clear scientific information about habitat use by these species. Populations of leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea

Whale sharks (Rinchodon typus) are found in shallow coastal and deep waters of tropical and warm temperate seas. Population genetic studies indicate high connectivity among populations, and an Indo-Pacific meta-population has been suggested with pote

Despite facing serious threats of extinction in the Eastern Pacific, the leatherback turtle ( Dermochelys coriacea ) appears to be thriving in the Atlantic basin based on increasing nest counts at several rookeries. In particular, Florida’s nest nu

The types of marine benthic habitats utilised by hawksbill sea turtles Eretmochelys imbricata nesting at Needham's Point, Barbados, were investigated using an underwater drop camera. Habitats used preferentially (i.e. those within high-use areas) ten
