SUMMARY Sea turtles are known to detect chemical cues, but in contrast to most marine animals, turtles surface to breathe and thus potentially have access to olfactory cues both in air and in water. To determine whether sea turtles can detect airborne chemical cues, captive loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) were placed into a circular,

First Isolation of Yersinia enterocolitica From a Sea Turtle: A Case Report in Caretta caretta. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
1. First isolation of Yersinia enterocolitica, a zoonotic bacterium, in a loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta), identifying it as the likely cause of severe colitis, hepatitis, and fatal sepsis. 2. The findings highlight that sea turtles and the marine environment can act as reservoirs for Y. enterocolitica: this poses a “One Health” threat. 3.
