Download or read book COSEWIC Assessment and Status Report on the Spotted Turtle Clemmys Guttata in Canada written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main threats to the species are road mortality; collection for the pet, food and traditional medicine trade; and habitat loss due to invasive plants and development. [...] The Spotted Turtle is amongst the most popular of turtle species in the pet trade and the poaching of wild specimens presents a real threat to its survival. [...] Distribution The Spotted Turtle is restricted to eastern North America in disjunct populations from southern Ontario and Maine southward along the Atlantic Coastal Plain to central Florida, and westward along the south shores of the Great Lakes to northeastern Illinois. [...] Threats and Limiting Factors Spotted Turtle numbers are in decline mainly due to road mortality; collection for the pet, food, and medicine trade; and the loss and degradation of wetland habitat from invasive plants and development. [...] Preliminary data suggest that subpopulations are in decline due to several observed threats, the most serious of which include: road mortality; collection for the pet, food, and traditional medicine trade; and habitat loss and degradation due to invasive species and development.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western painted turtles (Chrysemys picta belli) are found occupying Fairview Creek Headwaters (FCH) in Gresham, Oregon. This urban stream contains a large wetland with an adjacent butte, all managed by the City of Gresham. This management plan addresses the preferred habitat and population of turtles at the site. A habitat delineation of the site revealed specific locations where habitat improvements could take place as well as areas of already beneficial habitat. Two site plans were prepared showing areas of the site that could be enhanced with nesting habitat as well as additional aquatic habitat and basking habitat. A habitat study was conducted comparing the terrestrial and aquatic habitat in the northern part of the site and the southern portion of the site. The northern portion of the site, where the most turtles are seen, was found to have more bare ground, with a rush species and emergent vegetation as indicator species. The southern portion of the wetland was dominated by reed canary grass and birdsfoot trefoil. This area had high plant density with very little bare ground. The aquatic habitat in the southern portion of the wetland had less emergent vegetation and more floating vegetation. Two management plans were created for Fairview Creek Headwaters northern section of the site. The first plan is a low impact plan, focusing on nesting habitat creation along the west edge of the north wetland. Plan 2 is a more comprehensive plan which includes improving aquatic habitat and basking habitat. Seven years of mark-recapture data collected on the turtle was used to summarize findings on the turtle population. Two methods were used to estimate the population size, Lincoln Petersen and Schnabel methods.
