The domestication of Podocnemis expansa (Gigant Amazonian turtle) with commercial purpose it was implanted in Brazil in 1992. However, a lot of subjects about handling, nutrition, sanity and mainly reproduction are still obscure these animals. The objective of this study was evaluated the effects of crude protein concentration and source on body weight of Podocnemis expansa. The turtles (n=480) were transferred to Setor de Piscicultura EV/UFG. Six animal groups (80/each) were put in water tanks of 500 liters. Five groups […]
