they are turtles
A terrapin has a shell because it is a turtle, of course. There are 4kinds of turtles: aquatic turtles, land turtles, terrapins, and sea turtles. All turtles have shells.
no a fish will not eat a terrapin but the terrapin just might eat the fish LOL :-)
A terrapin is not only the mascot of the University of Maryland, but it is also a turtle. A terrapin may be eaten by raccoon, skunks, and birds when the turtles are still in their eggs.
No species of turtle, tortoise or terrapin is poisonous.
Tortoise, or box turtle No, I'm afraid not. The common name for a terrapin is the softshell turtle. The terrapin is aqautic, and the tortise and box are land turtles.
The diamondback terrapin turtle, or simply terrapin, are endangered species. These turtles are hunted for food and Chinese medicines.

tortoise live on land,on sand. turtles live in water. and terrapin live on both. you already know the difference between tortoise and turtle.but you dont know the difference between terrapin. well,terrapin has a long neck and soft shell.
Both names refer to the same animal. In America terrapins, tortoises and turtles are all referred to as turtles. This has caused some confusion in the hobby and some pet/reptile shops here in the UK also call terrapins turtles. The peninsular cooter (also a terrapin) looks almost identical to the yellow bellied terrapin. Hope this helps.
