Overview

This research shows captivity alters biochemical parameters in green sea turtles, indicating important health implications for conservation.

Key Points

  • Captive green sea turtles exhibit significant deviations in haematological and biochemical markers compared to wild baselines.
  • Juvenile turtles displayed elevated immature red blood cell counts and ghost cell counts, indicating stress-related issues.
  • Dyslipidemia and hyperproteinemia were prominent in captive adults, suggesting dietary imbalances affecting their health.
  • The study establishes critical reference intervals for pre-release assessments to optimize rehabilitation success and post-release survival.
