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.
