Best Answer

Horses sleep standing up. Believe it or not, if they were to lay down for too long, their insides would collapse under their own weight. To accommodate this, they have a locking-type mechanism in their legs. That way, they can sleep and not fall over. But horses do take naps lying down. In fact, the only way they can get REM sleep is if they are laying down with their noses touching the ground.

How Do the flat back turtles sleep?

Turtles, like any other animal, sleep when they need to. I catch my four napping on a regular basis. They love catching a snooze while out sunning themselves. They can't sleep under water they have to be basking. If they were to sleep under water they might drown. My turtle spent her first night completely undewater (sleeping) So I guess they do sleep underwater they hold their breath for hours
