This study compared Bog Turtle population demography and habitat use from 1994 to 2009 at two sites in Massachusetts, USA: one site was managed for nonnative invasive species and natural succession (Site 1), and the other site was flooded from American Beaver (Castor canadensis) activity resulting in an expansion of nonnative invasive plants (Site 2).No publisherReptileAdditional ResourcesBog TurtleHabitat RestorationEndangered SpeciesHabitat ManagementProductResearchPeer-reviewed ScienceWildlifeAquaticsInvasive SpeciesBog Turtle Additional ResourcesResources2022/11/08 18:40:00 GMT-4ProductGrazing for Bog Turtle Habitat Management: Case Study of a New York Fen

This study presents results from a single wetland complex in New York, USA, which we managed primarily with cattle grazing over four and a half growing seasons. Management effectiveness was assessed by monitoring Bog Turtle nest placement, habitat use via radio tracking, and vegetation structure and composition change in permanent plots.

The demise of small-scale dairy farming over the past three decades has led to the pastoral abandonment of the majority of bog turtle habitats in the Northeast. As a consequence, habitats are being degraded by the growth of invasive flora, changes in hydrology, and the loss of turtle microhabitats created by livestock.No publisherReptileAdditional ResourcesLivestockHabitat lossBog TurtleProductResearchPeer-reviewed ScienceAquaticsBog Turtle Additional ResourcesGrazingResources2022/11/08 17:15:00 GMT-4ProductSlow and Steady: Bog Turtles at Home on Private Lands

As a result of the Delaware Watershed Conservation Fund, agricultural landowners in New Jersey are changing management practices on their land to support the bog turtle, a species listed as threatened in the northern part of its range under the federal Endangered Species Act.
The beauty is, farmers aren’t just changing their practices because it’s good for the turtle; they are changing their practices because it’s good for business.No publisherReptileUSFWSFarmersBog TurtleHabitat ManagementNew Jersey AudubonWatershedsGrazingDelaware Watershed Conservation FundNRCSEndangered SpeciesNewsFreshwater TurtlesLandownersPrivate Lands2022/10/25 16:55:00 GMT-4LinkA Collaborative Approach to Restore Bog Turtle Populations

Like the bog turtle itself, bog turtle populations in North Carolina are very small. A collaborative effort between multiple conservation organizations hopes to change that by giving them a little help.No publisherTurtleThe Nature ConservancyBogsAdditional ResourcesUSFWSNews & EventsWildlife ConservationAquaticsWLFWLandownersBog TurtleZoo KnoxvilleResourcesHead-startingEndangered SpeciesNorth Carolina Wildlife Resources CommissionNewsFreshwater TurtlesTangled Bank ConservationBog Turtle Additional ResourcesPrivate Lands2022/10/25 16:45:00 GMT-4News ItemSaving the South’s Tiniest and Rarest Turtles
