June 16, 2020 sarah Jonas Conservation, Endangered Species, EPIDEMIOLOGY, Florida, green sea turtles, Herpesvirus, Marine Science, Sea Turtles, veterinary science, Viral Infections, Viruses

The most comprehensive health assessment for a green turtle rookery in the world to date is providing critical insights into various aspects of physiology, biology, and herpesvirus epidemiology of this nesting population. Findings are hopeful for this population of green sea turtles in southeastern Florida, offer important data on the profile of health for future comparative investigations, and suggest that viruses are endemically stable in this nesting population.
