| Abstract |
|
A Box Turtle Research Group has formed in North Carolina to examine the feasibility of starting a widespread box turtle research effort that will engage trained citizen scientists in data collection. The group consists of university researchers, state parks personnel, a NC Zoological Park curator, wildlife agency personnel, and a representative of the state museum of natural sciences. We are analyzing the merits and pitfalls of conducting a multi-tiered project that will allow for different levels of involvement and commitment. The discussion of project goals and potential funding will continue into the fall with a pilot project planned for spring 2008.
