Understanding eastern indigo snake growth rates is important for informing ongoing captive breeding and reintroduction efforts to restore eastern indigo snakes in historically occupied parts of their range in northern Florida and southern Alabama.
Reintroduced snakes had the highest growth rate while wild and captive snakes grew at similar rates. Growth was rapid in both males and females but fastest for females. Finally, estimates of measurement error highlight the importance of accurately measuring body size in snakes.
We are keeping a running list of software (R and others) for analyzing animal movement data, check it out and let us know if when new ones come along, or if you have edits to suggest (building off great paper by @rocio_joo 2019)
