Site fidelity is the dispersal distance restriction of an animal and its tendency to return to a stationary site (Switzer, 1993). The most well-known and well-documented example of site fidelity is the nest-site fidelity of egg-laying animals, for example, turtles, including both sea (Tucker, 2010) and freshwater turtles (Bona et al., 2012).However, to our knowledge, home-site fidelity, that is, the ability of an animal to remain at its home site without being displaced (Andres & Chambers, 2006), is only exhibited by very few freshwater turtles, and their fidelity is reportedly very low. For example, common musk turtles Sternotherus odoratus exhibit only 15% fidelity (recaptured individuals in original site/total individuals) to their home site (Andres & Chambers, 2006). Homing behavior, that is, the ability of a displaced animal (moved from a familiar site to an unfamiliar one) to return to its home site, is another aspect of home-site fidelity. A few
