Abstract |
Testudinidae Geochelone radiata Of 93 chelonians submitted to Northwest ZooPath from 1994-1998, only two cases (2.0%) were documented, in a wild-caught adult male impressed tortoise (Manouria impressa) (tortoise 1) and a captive-bred 7-mo-old Leopard tortoise (Geochelone pardalis) (tortoise 2). At the Wildlife Conservation Society, two additional cases were documented from adult radiated tortoises from St. Catherine’s Island (tortoises 3-4), and in three Travancore tortoises (Indotestudo forstenii) from an illegal shipment originating in Celebese, that was confiscated by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (tortoises 5-7).
