other farms in the Hudson Valley to learn about the species\u2019 use and preference of cultivated and non-cultivated lands and to document instances where the turtles come in contact with farm machinery and other farm-related hazards. Our research has demonstrated that Wood Turtles spend most of their time in wild vegetation and waters, but venture into farm fields enough\u2014particularly during nesting season (May-June)\u2014to expose themselves to hazards. We are currently working with the Farm Hub to create a Wood Turtle Management Plan that identifies important areas on the Farm that would benefit from modifying agricultural practices, e.g., switching from annual to perennial crops, enhancing habitat in non-cultivated areas to deter turtles from seeking habitat resources in farm fields, and curtailing mowing during critical periods. In 2024, we will be conducting experimental habitat management at Farm Hub and reaching out to other farms in the region to provide guidance on best management practices for Wood Turtles.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section

We documented farm-related mortality of Wood Turtles, which was mostly associated with the use of a roller-crimper tractor implement on cover crops planted in organic legume and maize fields. In places where there were larger areas of the favored terrestrial forb-shrub thicket between stream channel and cropfields, the turtles were less likely to move into hazardous cultivated areas. Turtles were more likely to move into those hazardous areas during nesting forays, when summer temperatures were high, at times of high flows caused by reservoir releases, and when crossing cropfields from overwintering habitats to active-season habitats. Nesting occurred in a disused gravel pit, on gravel bars, and in cropfields.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p><p class=\"m_5603820181316980403MsoListParagraph\">To access this paper, contact the authors Erik Kiviat\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:kiviat@bard.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">kiviat@bard.edu<\/a>\u00a0and Jason Tesauro\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:tesaurojason@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tesaurojason@gmail.com<\/a>.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Applied Farmscape Ecology Research Collaborative Erik Kiviat PhD and Jason Tesauro MS Research: Wood Turtles and Working Farms Contact Erik Contact Jason Hudsonia and Jason Tesauro Consulting Hudsonia conducts ecological research and produces educational products for land-use decision makers, environmental professors, and others Since 2019, we\u2019ve radio-tracked adult and juvenile Wood Turtles at Farm Hub [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":6581,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-16533","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Erik &amp;
