"Australian freshwater turtles support healthy wetlands and rivers. Yet one in
three turtle species is threatened with extinction. And there is still much we
don’t know about them.

In today’s special issue of the journal Austral Ecology, 55 authors present
the latest research on Australian freshwater turtles.

Along with other biologists, we have contributed to a series of research papers
to inform ecology and conservation of freshwater turtles.

Our research reveals some fresh insights into turtle behaviour, survey methods
and conservation strategies."
