Abstract: My objective is threefold: (1) to discuss the connectedness between research ecology conducted on sea turtles; (2) provide accounts of significant research conducted on freshwater turtles that was carried out by former sea turtle researchers; (3) recognize the conservation and protection problems faced by all turtles that will be aided greatly by the combined efforts of all turtle conservation ecologists.
