Abstract

Aural abscess incidence in 22 painted turtle (Chrysemys picta) populations in Minnesota averaged 0.7% (range, 0.0%-9.1%) of more than 2700 captured turtles. Results indicate the need for more research regarding incidence and causes of aural infections in turtles and possible directions for future work are suggested.
