Although tortoises have a shell, underneath it still has a backbone.Any animal that develops a vertebral column (a backbone or spine, or something similar) is classed as a vertebrate. This grouping is the subphylumVertebrata andincludes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, sharks and rays.Anything that does not develop a true vertebral column can be described as an invertebrate, but this term is confusing because it basically just means "all animals that aren't vertebrates" which includes insects, worms, snails, crabs, octopuses, squid... It's pretty vague, as it covers about 97% of species in the animal kingdom.
