|
Turtle conservation efforts in the Southeastern U.S. vary substantially in size and scope. Even the smaller efforts often involve multiple partners due to jurisdictions, authorities, impetus for the effort, and financial support. Here, we highlight a variety of selected efforts being carried out for both aquatic and terrestrial turtles in the Southeastern U.S. illustrating effective localized conservation, as well as, wide-ranging projects which are underway. Key factors in success of various projects appear to be dedicated funding, partnerships, presence of “champions” to carry them to completion, and presence of a conservation designation that may elevate the species in priority, highlight the need for conservation, or provide authorities to carry out the work.
