Turtles and Tortoises

The turtle is a repgile, and all reptiles belong to the taxonomic domain of Eukarya.Eukarya covers all organisms in the Kingdom Animalia, as well as the Kingdoms Plantae, Fungi and Protista.

A turtles claws arenormally in the back because they dig with there back legs and it is easier for them to dig with there back legs, like a dog. I have a turtle myself and have seen it use its claws before they are more like toes or fingers than claws. I could be mistaken because these are just my observations.

No. All modern chelons (turtles and tortoises) are toothless.
No, turtles and tortoises lost their teeth quite long ago, when they were coexisting with dinosaurs.

The envelope that Turtle saw in the Westing house said, "The Westing Game. Pair up, and be rich." It was the start of the mystery game created by Sam Westing for the heirs of his estate.

It is difficult to provide an exact number, but worldwide, thousands of turtles are abused or exploited each day through illegal trade, pet ownership, habitat destruction, and bycatch in fishing activities. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect these vulnerable species from further harm.

Pawikan is not an oversized turtle, but rather a type of sea turtle found in the Philippines. They are known for their large size, with some species growing up to several feet in length. The term "Pawikan" is used specifically to refer to sea turtles in the Philippines.

Land turtles eat earthworms and insects outside! if you found a turtles outside it is not your responsibility to keep it. it could be dangerous! they do not even like people. i got one and it just wants to leave.

This order includes all turtles and tortoises. It is divided into three suborders: Pleurodira (side-necked turtles), Cryptodira (freshwater turtles, snapping turtles, tortoises, soft-shelled turtles, and sea turtles), and Amphichelydia (a suborder of turtles that is now extinct).

it snaps its jaw

-------------------------

Unlike snapping turtles, desert tortoises cannot snap their jaws. Since they are completely herbivorous they have no need for fast moving jaws. The only reason some turtles can snap, is because they need to be able to catch fast moving objects, such as insects. However since desert tortoises eat nothing but plants, they have no need to move quickly(because the plants aren't going anywhere).

Now, their number one defensive mechanism is their shell. When they feel threatened, they pull inside covering the openings with their heavily armored limbs. The shell also acts as camoflauge. Say a predator is flying over head and looks down upon the desert tortoise. All it is going to see is a large rock-like object, that looks nothing like food.

However other than the shell, the tortoise has little other defenses. This is mainly due to the fact that few predators have adaptations to get through this first line of defense. So it doesn't need any others.

The Little Turtle was a chief of the Miami Nation. He successfully led his people in battles against American forces in the Northwest Indian War.

Loggerheads are important because they control the population of molluscs, crustaceans, fish, jellyfish, crabs, shrimp and Portuguese Man o' War and other small to medium-sized marine animals by eating them.

Excreting a black stool can be normal in tortoises, as it can indicate the presence of digested plant matter. However, passing white chalky stools can be a sign of dehydration or a dietary issue. It's important to ensure your tortoise has access to fresh water and a well-balanced diet to prevent further issues. If you're concerned, it's best to consult a veterinarian who specializes in reptiles.

Turtles can vary in size depending on the species. The largest species, such as the leatherback sea turtle, can grow up to 7 feet in length and weigh up to 2,000 pounds. Smaller species, like the Bog turtle, may only grow to a few inches in length.

A turtle's shell serves as its shield, providing protection from predators and environmental threats. The shell is made up of two parts: the carapace (top shell) and the plastron (bottom shell), which are fused to the turtle's skeleton. In addition to physical protection, the shell also helps regulate the turtle's body temperature and provides structural support for movement.

Turtles typically have five toes on each of their front feet, but the number of toes on their back feet can vary depending on the species. Most turtles have three or four toes on their back feet. Each toe ends in a claw, which helps them navigate their environment and dig.

Slime around a turtle's eyes can indicate an infection or an issue with the turtle's tear ducts. It is important to seek advice from a veterinarian who specializes in reptiles to properly diagnose and treat the underlying cause of the slime. rinsing the eyes gently with saline solution can help in the meantime.

If you throw him hard enough, yes. The 'Flying Turtle' is a child's play toy which resembles a 'Big-Wheel' in some sense. The user sits on a seat in the rear, grips the handlebars, and unlike the Big-Wheel, uses the handlebars to convert horizontal swinging in to forward locomotion.

Putting a turtle in hot water can be very harmful or fatal, as they are ectothermic animals whose body temperature is regulated by their environment. Rapid changes in temperature can lead to stress, overheating, or even death for the turtle. It is important to always handle turtles with care and ensure their environment is suitable for their specific species.

Turtles are not particularly "ticklish." The most sensitive areas of skin are between their neck and front legs, or behind their back legs (in the shell). Many pet turtles also enjoy being stroked on the underside of their neck. My companion turtles have very ticklish feet. You should not tickle them because it generally makes them livid. If they are in a good mood beforehand, they will start dancing when tickled. Make sure to use plenty of hand sanitizer after tickling your turtles because they are known to harbor the salmonella bacteria.

Yes, terrapins live in water, although if housing in a fish tank they need somewhere they can get up and out of the water to take a breath and sleep. They do not breathe underwater like fish as they do not have gills but can swim, much like humans, underwater by holding their breath, they they therefore need a shore, or some rock formation where they can come up for air, rest and breathe normally. Small terrapins can hold their breath for a few minutes, larger ones for up to 12 minutes and larger wild sea turtles, much longer.

it is about a turtle and a rabbit that race each other then the turtle wins.

Wild turtles primarily eat insects such as crickets, worms, beetles, and grasshoppers. They also feed on snails, slugs, and small fish as part of their diet. Certain turtle species may also consume fruits, vegetables, and aquatic plants.

Turtles do not waddle in the same way that some other animals, such as penguins or ducks, do. Turtles have a unique way of moving due to their anatomy and shell structure. They use their limbs to push themselves forward in a slow and steady manner, rather than waddling from side to side.

Turtle pie is a type of dessert that typically consists of a chocolate cookie or graham cracker crust filled with a creamy caramel or butterscotch layer, topped with chopped pecans or walnuts, and drizzled with chocolate sauce. The combination of sweet caramel, crunchy nuts, and rich chocolate makes for a decadent and delicious treat.
