Do sharp-toothed lizards bite? If you don't think so, I would like to see you stick a finger into my smaller male's mouth. My other tortoise's bite took the skin off my finger a few years ago. She takes mostly everything from me gingerly in small bites now, but I think it's because she doesn't want to taste blood again. She still wolfs down bigger pieces.
Yes, a tortoise bite can be harmful to humans due to their sharp beaks and strong jaws, which can cause cuts, bruises, and potential infections. It is important to seek medical attention if bitten by a tortoise.
you don't need to care for a bite because it is normally like a little paper cut but algergater tortoises will bite your finger LITERLY
snapping turtles have strong bite i dont know about the strongest tho
some tortoise bite some can scratch. but most dont need to defend them selves. that is why they have shells. they also can hiss to scare away any predators.
A tortoise has a pointy tip at the front of its mouth like a bird beak. so its either the tip of the mouth that hurts your hand or that its jaws are very powerful.
Keep your hand away from its mouth while feeding it. I had one that would bite but I learned my lesson.
The Galapagos tortoise
A leopard tortoise. :)
...Tortoise.
Yea, it does hurt if a tortise bites you. This is because, much like a a chick , it has an egg toooth and that is on the tip of their mouth. Chelonians have no teeth, just a beak. Tortoises will not bite you, it is turtles you should worry about. My tortoise has only bit me accidentally while I hand fed him and he didn't see my finger. It's a very, very hard pinch that hurts quite a bit.
you draw the tortoise and then rub out its body
The word tortoise forms a regular plural, tortoises.
