Diamondback terrapins are one of my absolute favorite reptile species. I created this video to share a little about their biology, conservation challenges, and to share some of the awesome DBTs here in Savannah, including at Skidaway Island State Park and at the Tybee Island Marine Science Center. The MSC is also involved in their conservation by rescuing and raising baby DBTs for later release!
Special thanks to Chantal Audran of the Science Center for sharing her wealth of knowledge and showing her beautiful babies! Special thanks also to my newest Patron, Jesusangel (aka one of my BFFs), for supporting this channel! Thank you to my other Patrons as well- your support makes this content possible!

Yo y'all should look up projectterrapin.org created by Dr. Wnek. It's a conservation effort in NJ dedicated to conserving Malaclemys Terrapin terrapin, otherwise know as the Northern diamondback Terrapin.

New subscriber thanks to The Turtle Girl. Good info, just wish the audio was louder. Cranked volume all the way up on my phone, but it was still a struggle to hear.

Hey Jen. Wanted to ask more about the dispelling of salt by the Terrapins tears. What else do you know about it? Is the salt from what they have swallowed from surrounding water? Could you guide me in a direction where to find out more? Thanks great video.

@vitocasola4309 5 жыл бұрын

Hi, Great video, thank you very much! I found something on-line about a dark phase Diamondbank terrapin, do you know what that is about? Or what subspecies it is? Thank you so much!

@Ochibason 6 жыл бұрын

What salinity do they keep? Can you use like Tropicmarin?

I've read over the years constantly, NEVER to peel off scutes as it can damage their shells and allow bacteria to cause infection. I softly brush off scales from my RES when she needs it but never even close to picking like in the video...

-it's a really nice video but I cant stop myself to make a correction... periwinkle snails dont est the Spartans grass... just the nutrients and detritus that gathers on the grass as the tides go through it... nothing eats it really.
