∙ 13y agoYes, the lions teeth are strong enough to break through a turtles shell. Lions have many small teeth, and only four big "eye" teeth. Humans have "eye" teeth, too. To find them, you must look at your two big from teeth. It doesn't matter what side you go to of the two, just pick one. I am going to the right. Go one tooth over, and then another over. That, my friend, is you eyes tooth. I don't know why it's called that, but it is.
