- W4207021132 abstract "The reproductive cycle of Galapagos giant tortoises has primarily been studied in captive individuals via noninvasive methodologies, including hormonal studies, radiographs, and ultrasound. During the annual reproductive cycle, mating peaks occur during the hot season months (December–June), followed by nesting during the cool season (June–December). Females dig flask-shaped holes in the soil typically in flat areas at lower elevations where soil suitable for digging accumulates. Females deposit 1–26 eggs and close nests with a mixture of urine, feces, and soil, which then dries into a hard cap, which seals in moisture and provides a protective layer for developing embryos. Rate of development and sex of the embryos depend on the temperature of the nest: when incubation temperatures are high (above 29.5°C) embryos become female and when temperatures are low (below 28°C) male. Eggs hatch after between 90 and 270 days of incubation. Young remain in the nest for up to 1 month until all eggs have hatched and consumed their yolk reserves. Hatchlings then dig an exit hole and emerge from the nest." @default.
