Tortoise
No. A tortoise and a turtle are the same animal. People make the distinction based on the locations where they generally live. There will be a slight difference in their shells because they live in different environments but there will be no major differences.
To protect the tortoise.
a turtle is a reptile with a shell . So is a Tortoise ! A tortoise is also a reptile with a shell !
His shell breaks when he has to jump to his home from up in the sky
you draw the tortoise and then rub out its body
The tortoise's shell is their home. The shell has a hard cover and can protect them when something hard hits it. If they do not have the shell, they would have died fast.
The shell of a tortoise is similar to the human rib cage. To be precise, the human rib cage has spaces between them which seperates 1 rib from the other. For a tortoise the ribs are merged together forming a conch aka shell. Hence if you ever tap hard on the shell of a tortoise a few times, you will see immediate movement in the form of the tortoise trying to run away from you. Hence if the shell of the Tortoise breaks it results in immediate death of the tortoise . Hence one should never try and remove the shell of the tortoise. Incase the shell cracks , immediately take your tortoise to a pet doc. Also bandage the crack like you would to a human wound. Ensure that the bandage is firm so as to hold the shell together.
It is in the clock and it is the shell of a turtle
its shell
Unfortunately, it is a myth that turtles and tortoises can leave or change their shells. The shell is actually a hard, protective covering over the turtle or tortoise's ribs. So if you find an empty tortoise shell that means that that tortoise has died and decomposed.
