Sick Crocodilian Sightings

Help Us Monitor Crocodilian Health: Report Sick or Bloated Alligators and Crocodiles

Skunk Sightings

 The goal of this citizen science project is to evaluate the population of both striped and spotted skunks in Florida.

Turtle & Tortoise Nesting Sightings

The freshwater turtle nesting reports help us better understand the nesting season for individual species in the state of Florida. The data can be vital as environmental, human impacts and disease become more and more of a concern for our native wildlife including chelonians (turtles and tortoises).

TFV Sightings

In 2018, freshwater turtles in Florida’s St. Johns River began dying of an unknown illness. Eventually, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and collaborating research partners determined that the turtle mortalities were caused by a novel virus. This virus is now referred to as Turtle Fraservirus (TFV).
