CALLING ALL EXOTICSCON ATTENDEES: Come visit our booth for the WEL diagnostic lab section!! Our VDL offers turtle and tortoise respiratory panels, ophidiomycosis, nannizziopsis, emydomyces, chytrid, and ranavirus testing, among others!#exoticscon
1. POV: You said your favorite animal was a reptile 2. POV: You said your favorite animal was a bird
We are celebrating the end of summer break with a successful week of box turtle team! We have such amazing veterinary student volunteers that made our field and lab work the most fun and efficient! How can we have turtle searches every week? 🐢
Our DVM/PhD student, Maris, was the winner of the Terry Amundson Award for best student presentation at this year’s WDA conference! She presented on a qPCR assay she developed for a penguin herpesvirus. Congrats, Maris🥳🏆 #WDA2023
Our lab’s leaders championed their oral presentations at WDA! Dr. Allender discussed the status of influenza at PSJ & Dr. Adamovicz discussed our favorite topic, Eastern box turtles! We are so lucky to have such amazing scientists leading our lab & mentoring our students👑🐢
Dr. Kaitlin, Carly, and Maris all participated in the oral student presentation competition at WDA! These students did a fantastic job presenting their projects to on such a big stage! The future of wildlife disease is in good hands!! We could not be more proud🥹#WDA2023
Starting off strong for the first poster session strong with presentations from our PhD and veterinary students! Georgia is hot but these posters are hotter🥵🔥 #wda2023 #wdaathens
There’s nothing like being hip-deep in the marsh during the hottest day of the year! Today is one of the very few days where flooding those waders is a must! 🥵
Happy Wednesday from a shy little friend💛
Just a typical day in the office💁♀️
Each year, @brookfield_zoo visits @Nachusa with boykin spaniels to find ornate box turtles, which can only be found in prairies. This NBC story is a great one to learn about these wonderful furry partners in conservation! @WildlifeEpiLab @SoilOrgMatters nbcnews.com/video/nightly-…
Miss Science 2023👑
Have a ssssspecial World Snake Day! 🐍🐍
Did you know that turtles can get Chlamydia just like koalas?? Oh, you didn’t? WEL, sounds like you should talk to Turtle Team Leader, Lily, who is studying how Chlamydia can impact turtle health!! A healthy turtle is a healthy ecosystem! 🐢🌱
No caption, no words, just cuteness🥺
Our very own, Dr. Laura, is the recipient of the very prestigious, Walder Grant! The Walder Foundation promotes the sustainability of the natural environment. Laura’s study will establish an infectious disease surveillance program for freshwater turtle communities in Chicagoland.
Scamp is one of the older working Turtle Dogs, but she still shows her nieces and nephews up from time to time! Just when you think she’s losing focus, she brings you a very handsome turtle. These dogs are amazing!
Rising third-year DVM student, Kristin, has been an absolute rock star for our lab this summer!! Kristin is one of the best partners to have in the field, in the lab, and in life! We are so thankful for our dedicated and hard working students!! How can we clone her??
Our Blanding’s turtle queen, Dr. Kaitlin, is back in the summer fieldwork grind before starting her third year as a PhD student this fall!! Kaitlin is problem solving her way through Blanding’s Turtle headstart programs, and we are so thankful for all of her hard work!!
Have you ever seen a tail draw be so effortless?? Raise your hand if you’re jealous of Marg’s snapper skills🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️

Anyone else have a turtle shelf in their house where you display all the random gifted turtles people give you because they know you love turtles?
5 painted turtles in one trap! Although not our focus species, still a fun find! #BBX #Fieldwork #Turtles
Twofer Tuesday! 40 points for these little guys on day two of Blanding’s Bowl! #BBX #TurtleTuesday #Turtles #Fieldwork
We are so inspired by this. Having deep thoughts about what kind of donut Zoya would be. We're discussing on stream! glazed? maybe cake? or maple frosted? hmmm
Cook County students, Katelyn and Kami, are embracing dunking their waders in their weekly summer blog. Future @dunkindonuts collab?? Check out the whole blog here: vetmed.illinois.edu/wel/dunkin-in-…
We figured it out , @WildlifeEpiLab ! Zoya the Russian tortoise would definitely be a maple frosted donut!
Well y’all I’m officially Dr. Atkinson #herpetology #Perkinsea #frog
Look at those glamorous turtles! It's always a delight when @WildlifeEpiLab shows up at @Nachusa @nature_org
Wide eyes and wide lens for the first day of box turtle sampling!! We are off to a hot start in one of our favorite sites sampling feisty and gorgeous ornate box turtles!! Petition to have the entire field season shot on the 0.5?? 🐢😎
Pasque flower blooming @Nachusa @Nature_IL on a very windy day!
We call them box turtles bc they r good @ boxing 🥊
We are starting this #TurtleTuesday with a riddle: what is something you can catch, but can’t throw? The Eastern box turtle’s answer is always “you can’t catch these hands but I can sure throw them.” These turtles are stubborn, fierce and we are obsessed with their square up🥹👊🏼
@WildlifeEpiLab Thank goodness! I spent the last day sulking over the loss. :)
Gotta vote Eastern Box turtle!!
YOU HAVE CHOSEN YOUR HERP MADNESS FINAL FOUR! Twitter pulled through for the Diamondback Terrapin, but these final voting have been really close!! It’s time to vote for your top two! The madness is almost over….🐢🦎
This week’s episode of the #MVLPodcast involves a special story of dogs finding turtles! Our talk with Dr. Matt Allender dives into his passion for wildlife preservation & how he helped develop a research program with the @VetMedIllinois & @brookfield_zoo bit.ly/3nbkKZL
Every herpetologst has at least one moment like this each spring
Get in my belly. Ornate box turtles are opportunistic, feeding on almost anything that’s available. This helps them be adaptable. Even so, they're in decline & need protection throughout their range. Spread the word that wild turtles don't make good pets. 📷: E. Grunwald #NotAPet
