Care of Reptiles

You must have a lid on an aquarium holding a snapping turtle and an open area between the lid and the water surface to allow it to breathe.

The body structure, or anatomy, of the frog is very similar to the anatomy of man. Both man and the frog have the same kinds of organs and systems of organs. The frog's anatomy, however, is much simpler. As in other higher vertebrates, the frog body may be divided into a head, a short neck, and a trunk. The flat head contains the brain, mouth, eyes, ears, and nose. A short, almost rigid neck permits only limited head movement. The stubby trunk forms walls for a single body cavity, the coelom. Man's internal organs are housed in one of three distinct hollow cavities--the chest, the abdomen, and the pelvis. The human chest is separated from the abdomen by a powerful muscular partition, the diaphragm. There is no such partition in the frog's coelom. All the frog's internal organs--including the heart, the lungs, and all organs of digestion--are held in this single hollow space.

No, slugs are multicellular organisms.

lizards and other anthropods but not all

It is a fancy term for tortoise, therefore sometimes you can keep them as pets depending on the breed.

Terrapins make good pets PROVIDED you keep their enclosure clean ! They live quite a long time, and are easy to care for.

Sorry Lauren9712 - terrapin is NOT a 'fancy name for a tortoise' they are COMPLETELY different animals. !

Turtles mostly eat every fruit. They enjoy fruit and other sweet things.

while terrapins are reptiles whyy dont u tipe it on the internet like i did i probably had the same prob like u and didnt no the breed of ur terrapin like i still dont know it but i just got over it u should to good bye kyle out

There are two reasons one is to make sure it is not sick. The other reason is that it might think it is food. Make sure you have fresh food. If it still does it call a doctor it should not do that. Trust me I have a tortoise and it does not do that.

Take it to the vet right a away... you never know what it could be. A tumour maybe... Personally I would take it to the vet as soon as I could. Please take it to the vets. If you want any information on turtles healthcare or just turtles... please comment on my board and I'll tell you some information or give you websites. Hope this helped

Almost all Australian animals do not hibernate. Only one Australian mammal species hibernates: the mountain pygmy possum, which lives in the Snowy Mountains and the alpine regions of Australia.

That's what most reptiles love to do, really!

these teeth are born on the vomer and are used for holding food. Volmerine teeth are found found in the front part of the frogs mouth.

A moon snail preys upon other snails and bivalves. It wraps its large foot around the prey item and then drills a hole through the shell of its victim.

They are the same.

Just like a hamster or lizard you find a cage and feed them. If you want more info go to www.animalplanet.com ^No offence, but that is misleading. Frogs require quite elaborate setups to keep them happy and healthy. A glass or quality plastic tank with a lid will be needed. It must be fairly large. A hood lamp is a must. The set up will depend on the species and its needs, but you can't just go and grab the nearest frog and shove it in a tank and chuck in a couple of insects and expect it to be happy and healthy. Food and vet costs can be quite expensive also. www.frogs.org.au has some very good information and the community there is very helpful.

Chinese people are the smartest even if you compare to Albert Einstein. Nothing compares to china in working hard and doing their best. The Chinese people are intelligent. They eat everything they're suppose to. Their type of food is healthy (mostly). They work hard, play hard and everything hard. In the past the people had to work hard or they were gonna be demolished. They had to cook, and basically know everything to survive. That was in the past. Chinese people now are still smart. They eat everything right and balanced as always. They do things that other people can't do. They always try their best. Their culture is past down from many legendary people. Some maybe foolish, smart but the foolish ones turn out to be smart at the end. (You will see if your Chinese)

Chinese food is good xD.

Example: a 3 year old kid knows multiplication (real)

It depends which species. Initial set up - around £250 including the snake. Monthly upkeep - £20-40 depending on the amount of food and electricity needed to maintain the snake. Preparation and knowledge on the individual species - priceless !

Common Snapping Turtles (Chelydra Serpentina) generally do not eat lettuce. My husband found a little guy about the size of a quarter 3 1/2 years ago dehydrated on a concrete slab...nowhere near water!! My experience is by trial & error. I was told they eat lettuce (supposedly loving Romaine lettuce), but mine has never eaten anything but high protein items. I have tried just about every vegie & fruit, fresh, dehydrated, you name it...he has NEVER eaten any. It appears that they are mainly carnivorous, that means MEAT! My lil quarter-sized snapper now has a shell approx 9" long. It appears that his neck/head & his tail are approx the same length as his shell. He is quite large, healthy, hardy, & happy. What have I been feeding him? I DO NOT LIKE BUGS OR ANYTHING GROSS, SLIMY OR CRAWLY!! Therefore, I went to a local pet store and purchased dried (dead) meal worms, broke them into 1/4" pieces and used a lil stick to push it thru the water right to his face...& SNAP he ate it. All these years his diet has consisted mainly of dried mealworms, shrimp, grasshoppers, crickets,etc. He also gets (mainly as treats a few times a week), real peeled shrimp, chicken(no bones), hamburger, roast beef, turkey, pork, hot dogs, lunch meats...as well as the occasional creepy crawly my husband brings him, like live worms, crickets, flies, moths. You get the picture. And this turtle loves me! Gets to the front of 'habitat' as soon as he sees me or hears my voice. Responds to commands...YES IT IS TRUE! They are VERY smart! He knows if he wants to eat he goes to the right front corner of his home. That is where he is fed. Most of his food floats, but if I drop meat in & it sinks to the bottom of the water, I just tell him "It's on the bottom" & he will dive for it. When he is done eating I immediately get a net and clean out any food or poop debris. Along with the filters, it keeps his tank clean, with only a partial water change once a week. He knows when I thru doing that...I get a toothbrush (with rubber & regular bristles on it) and he gets his shell scrubbed up and likes his belly and legs & neck brushed. He wiggles around trying to get every inch of him scratched. He also plays peek-a-boo. Ducks his head under foliage! Loves when I sing to him, opens and closes his mouth when I'm just sitting & talking to him. Plays with a floating ball and splashes around making a mess. This guy is awesome! I have never been bitten, however, I TAKE PRECAUTIONS & keep my fingers out of his reach. Really, just use basic common sense. Don't tap on the glass with your finger...it makes it look appetizing. "Mud-Puppy" lives in a 50 gal aquarium with enough water that he can completely submerge. He has large rocks that he lays on to bask himself under a UVA/UVB Daylight bulb, or just floats to expose his back to the light. Also has a UVA/UVB Night Light. Required for a healthy shell. Regular tap water has worked just fine.

I wouldn't suggest them because they grow pretty big (and are alot of $$$$money) they are hard to feed, plus they do bite. You should try a Green Anole, they are small (don't have teeth unless you consider stubs teeth) never bite and are easy to feed.

A nest.

My daughter just caught 2 toads from the wild, and we set up a cage for them and everything.

I just fed them ants and some tiny beetles - I have a bearded dragon too, and I sometimes feed them crickets and mealworms. (Dried)

Hope this helps!!!

Edit: If it's a British toad, return it to the WILD - ALL UK reptiles and amphibians are now PROTECTED species. Interference is punishable by hefty fine and/or imprisonment !

Once a month on every full moon because the gravity from the moon forces the wee out so it can fertilize it's nest to give birth to the babies.

So basially, 5 times a month everyweek each day at 7pm because that is the prime mating time for these sexy bastards.
