摘要: Abstract The Kemp's ridley (Lepidochelys kempii) is the most endangered sea turtle species. During 1966–2017, an annual count of nests (i.e., clutches eggs laid) has served as index nesting female abundance on Gulf Mexico (GoM) beach in Tamaulipas, Mexico. This was increasing exponentially at 19% per year 2009, but it dropped unexpectedly by more than a third 2010 and through 2017 remained well below levels predicted. We hypothesize that pre-2010 declining carrying capacity for population within GoM contributed to this setback. discuss factors may have caused decline, including degradation ecosystem, population, capita availability neritic postpelagic) food, natural prey scavenged discarded bycatch from shrimp trawling. encourage evaluations (especially those robus...
