Small turtles get their food by foraging for it in their natural habitats. This includes scavenging for insects worms snails and other small animals as well as searching for vegetation such as aquatic plants fruits and berries. Some species of turtles also feed on carrion or the carcasses of dead animals.

Turtles have specialized adaptations for foraging such as long necks and claws that help them reach food in hard-to-reach places. They also have powerful jaws and strong beaks that allow them to crush and eat hard-shelled prey. Depending on the species small turtles may also feed on small fish frogs and other aquatic life.
