i know more of us know the turtles lay eggs on land. It is because eggs mostly laid on warm areas. The water is make up of cold particles which maintains the temperature on what marine animals need. But it is not the main reason. The baby inside the egg is a mammal. it will not live cause it don't know how to swim yet. It will drown.

What animals helped colonize the land?
Having less dependance on external water for reproduction and living was a primary factor leading to the colonisation of land by animals. Animals that lay eggs gained an outer coating or shell that prevented water loss or eggs started developing inside animals, animals also gained skin that is less permeable to water to prevent water loss and even some metabolic cycles such as the excretion of metabolic protein products are less water dependant in land animals than in fish.

Why do eggs laid in water or land have a smaller chance of developing?
Eggs laid in water or on land face various environmental challenges that can hinder their development. In water, eggs may be susceptible to predation, water quality issues, and fluctuating temperatures, which can affect survival rates. On land, eggs may encounter desiccation, temperature extremes, and increased risk of predation by terrestrial animals. Additionally, the specific reproductive adaptations of species influence the success of egg development in these environments.
Did my turtle lay eggs in water?

What lives part of it life in the water and part on land?
