| Chelonians, an order of the class Reptilia are mostly long lived animals with relatively small capacity for rapid population growth (POUGH; HEISER; MCFARLAND, 1999). The most widely distributed genus is the Chelonoidis, which comprises 22 species found in South America, Africa, Asia and the Oceanic Islands. In Brazil, two species of turtles come from humid forests, the Chelonoidis carbonaria and Chelonoidis denticulata. The devastation and deforestation of these forests are pointed out as one of the reasons for species of this genus to spread and even mate with each other. Hybrids may compete for resources with parental species, favored by “hybrid vigor” or, if they are fertile, have an impact on the genetic integrity of wild populations due to the... |
