  • Protecting Turtle Nests is an essential technique when trying to save rare species. Nest mortality is at an all-time high from predators and ensuing nest survival is a huge step forward in turtle conservation. I often protect painted, snapper, Blandings, and Wood turtle nests with great results. This video exemplifies my commitment to conserving species in my area.

    T hank you for saving the turtles. I live in Ohio and I am teaching my granddaughter about the Eastern box turtles , snapping turtles and aquatic turtles we have in our south Eastern Ohio area. She is like a sponge , with all this knowledge. She saved a baby snapping turtle from the road it was so tiny. I dont see how she even spotted it. It was so tiny.❤👍🏼👏🏼im still scared of snakes but im learning everyday watching you guys. I have a respect for them now and i protect them when i can. I didnt used to out of fear.

    So what I learned from this is you pee on a lot of nests. Just doing what you gotta do for animal conservation. 😂
    It's nice seeing Tara in the NERD videos. 🥰

    And a prize of a beautiful Milk Snake to boot! I've always loved them since I was a small kid. Wonderful personality, or at least the ones I met.

    Are there places you can release these turtles after they hatch. Such as National Forest or other types of habitat in your area ? For education and conservation concerns, could you explain how you deal with them since your able to increase their survival..

      This is a protected area that we are trying to
      Keep “protected”. It’s hard, people come here even and vandalize things like our blue bird boxes. Sad.

    Why the hell would someone vandalize a turtle nest? No wonder you hate most humans. (I do too.) Thank you for protecting the babies. You can tell that the mama turtle did a great job digging that nest.
    BTW, Tara is gorgeous!

      They want to ride quads and dirt bikes in the area that is “conservation land”. They destroyed all of the bird nesting boxes we had mounted on poles. Childish jerks.

    Thats a beautiful little egg. You guys should come down to my neck of the woods, we go around the beach and flag off sea turtles nests. I love when they hatch and scurry down to the water..

    Great stuff! You said you use cameras. Any footage you could show of what animals come to try to predate the nests?

    • @NewEnglandReptile
      @NewEnglandReptile  7 дней назад

      I use time lapse. In the past it’s various mammals but skunks are the main culprit. I generally just delete.

    I know you’ve said but why do turtles pee on their nests when they lay?
