URBAN TURTLE ECOLOGY RESEARCH PROJECT

U-TERP T-Shirts now available! details

The Urban Turtle Ecology Research Project -- or more simply, U-TERP -- was established in the fall of 2001 with the goal of studying the turtle community located in Central Canal in Indianapolis, IN. Our mission is to understand the persistence of and threats facing wildlife living within one of the largest urban areas in the Midwestern United States.

This site contains pages that detail our research, how we get it done, who we are, and what we know so far about the turtle community in the Central Canal of Indianapolis.
