    population estimate, this impact, in conjunction with high levels of deforestation over the same

    period have lead to the relative isolation of TNP, likely limiting the ability of the local population

    to thrive. As deforestation of the terrestrial boundaries around TNP continues, suitable forest

    habitat becomes marginalised towards the coast.

    However, not only does habitat loss appear to fit with current spatial and temporal activities of

    the local jaguar population, many of the likely secondary factors arguably have the same root

    cause. Whilst this remains to be seen, factors negatively affecting jaguars, a highly sensitive

    species affected by a range of invasive human activities, are indirectly affecting turtles,

    highlighting the importance of conserving holistically to the benefit of these keystone species.
