In snapping turtles, sex determination is strongly influenced by temperatures, but there is no range of temperature that favors females. Lizards appear to have their sex determined by factors other than temperature in the 20-40 degree C range. In snapping turtles, sex determination is strongly influenced by temperatures such that males are favored in the 26-34 degree C range. In snapping turtles, sex determination is strongly influenced by temperatures such that females are favored in the 26-34 degree C range.
