CheloniaCast sits down with Dr. Fredric Janzen. Dr. Janzen is the former director of the W.K. Kellogg Biological Station and a current professor in Michigan State University's Department of Fisheries and Wildlife. Dr. Janzen uses turtles as a model system to study deeper questions in the study of life, development, and evolution. The conversation covers various aspects of Dr. Janzen’s experiences in the study of turtle life history, evolution, and adaptation. From temperature sex determination considering climate change, reproductive behaviors, differences in fecundity between species, and egg/hatching adaptations, the conversation is wide-ranging.
