Some turtles live mainly on land, and others live mainly in the water. The ones that live mainly in the water are called aquatic turtles. Although aquatic turtles spend most of their time in the water, they must go onto dry land a few times a day to dry off their shells. If they do not dry off their shells periodically, the shells grow mold and fungus and become infected.
