Abstract

A study on wood turtles was started in the spring of 2015 by UMD scientists and the MN DNR to assess habitat use and responses to management actions. Turtles were fitted with GPS units and VHF transmitters for tracking purposes. Wood turtles are largely terrestrial and use forested areas for foraging.
