This handbook is the first book on tortoise management and research techniques that can be applied to any species. It is designed to be the manual that can serve for
certification for various institutions and State and Federal agencies. Many tricks of the trade on how to count burrows, excavate, and trap tortoises are given based on the 20 years of experience of the Ashtons. No other publication currently exists that brings together all the methods and techniques for tortoise management which can be used with other tortoises and turtles. Students and environmental consultants working with gopher tortoises and other upland species
will find this handbook indispensable. |
