Abstract

Food choice behavior of hatchling loggerhead sea turles,Caretta caretta, and chemosensory choice behavior of junvenile loggerhead sea turtles artificially imprinted prior to emergence from the nest were examined using models derived from choice threshold and set releasing value theories of decision making. Modelling results indicate that food choice behavior of hatchlings is better described by a model based on set releasing value theory and that choice behavior of chemically imprinted juveniles is better described by a model based on choice threshold theory.
