Prior to migration, breeding males exhibited a higher body condition index than non-breeding males. However, during the migratory reproductive period, breeding males lost significant body condition. Concurrent with these physical changes, breeding males showed a reduction in plasma triglycerides and an increased level of total protein towards the mid- to late breeding period. The plasma steroids corticosterone and testosterone increased and decreased, respectively, during the migratory/breeding phase. The pattern of change in body condition and physiology allude to a high-activity fasting period during the migratory/breeding phase of the male green turtle¹s life history. These marked physiological events during breeding suggest a proximate basis for terminating seasonal reproductive events, and a potential basis for phenotypic variation in male reproductive tactics.
