UF/IFAS study connects how health status of American Crocodiles is influenced by salinity levels in Florida Everglades

In Florida, the threatened American Crocodile plays an important role in the waterways and environment that we live in and enjoy. Among their attributes, their health, breeding and survival status tell us a lot about. Read More ....

40-Year UF/IFAS Study Connects Health of American Crocodiles to Salinity Levels in Florida Everglades

American crocodile hatchling.
While Florida might best be known for an abundance of American alligators, it’s also the only place in the world where gators coexist with American crocodiles particularly the southern Everglades. A new study led by scientists with University of Florida s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences maps out the status of crocodile populations in south Florida over the past 40 years to learn how they’ve responded to changes in the Everglades ecosystem. American Crocodiles as restoration bioindicators in the Florida Everglades was published in PLOS ONE on May 19.
For the study, UF/IFAS scientists conducted a long-term capture-recapture assessment on the South Florida population of American crocodiles from 1978 to 2015. They studied an area spanning 341 miles, from Biscayne Bay west to Cape Sable. The study area included Northeast Florida Bay, Crocodile Lake National Wildlife Refuge, and the Flamingo area in Everglades National Park. ....

Crocodiles can't thrive when the water turns salty

Increased salinity in water that American crocodiles navigate influences their health, breeding behavior, and ultimately, survival, a new study shows.
Researchers mapped out the status of their population over the last 40 years in response to changes in the Florida Everglades.
Considered a key wildlife indicator, the health of the American crocodile will continue to tell us whether water restoration efforts that began in the late 1980s benefit crocodiles. Those restoration efforts began as part of a $14.8 billion Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Project to bring back more natural conditions in the Florida Everglades.
“Crocodiles may look burly and resilient, and we think of them as ancient dinosaurs, but they are vulnerable to changes in the environment, including human-caused changes to their natural ecosystem,” says Venetia Briggs-Gonzalez, a research biologist who works at the Croc Docs Laboratory at the University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultur ....
