Abstract

Sea turtles' reproductive disorders are underdiagnosed, but potentially, there are several diseases that may affect gonads, genitalia, and annexes. Viruses, bacteria, and parasites may cause countless disorders, but more frequently the cause is traumatic or linked to human activities. Furthermore, veterinary management of the nest is of paramount importance as well as the care of newborns (also in captivity). This article gives an overview on the methods used to manage nests and reproductive activities of these endangered chelonians species.

摘要

海龟的生殖系统紊乱常常未得到充分诊断，但潜在地存在几种可能影响性腺、生殖器及附属器官的疾病。病毒、细菌和寄生虫可能引发无数紊乱情况，但更常见的原因是创伤性的或与人类活动有关。此外，巢穴的兽医管理以及新生海龟的护理（包括圈养环境中的护理）至关重要。本文概述了用于管理这些濒危龟类物种巢穴及生殖活动的方法。
