All turtles have a shell. It can be a hard bone shell or it can be like a thick leather shell called a soft-shell.

Tortoises are actually considered turtles also. Torts are 'land turtles.'

Turtles all have scales and lay eggs. They all have claws (except sea turtles.)

They have a cloaca/vent where their sexual and excretory systems are held.

They have long necks to reach foods and to breath from under water. They breath underwater by using their long necks to reach up, so only their noses are above the water's surface.

Turtles are masters of survival!
