The difference between the two is that the turtle will spend a lot of the water. Turtles usually have webbed feet these feet are very helpful for when they are swimming in the water. But the best life for these animals in the aquatic life style that have very long feet and that can become flippers and a streamlined body shape. The turtle usually never leaves the ocean but the only time that they do is when the females is ready to have babies or ready to lay her eggs. The place that they will lay their eggs is usually on the surface but there are some species like the green sea turtle 4
5.
they like to live in habitats that have lots of reefs and they also like to live on beaches that has an bask. Other species of turtles live in freshwater and those places are ponds and lakes. The difference between the other turtles is that they can climb on banks, logs, and onto rocks that will usually bask into the sun. When the weather starts to get cold than the turtle will start to build up an burrow right into the mud and they will usually stay in there until the spring season comes or when the weather becomes warm again. The Tortoise is a lot different than a turtle that is because they are the type of species that will normally spend a lot of their time on land and they will also eat different types of food like they can eat grass and they can also eat cactus as well.The other difference between a tortoise and a turtle is that the tortoise does not have webbed feet they have a more rounded and slumpy so that it can help them when they are walking on land. There are some tortoises species that can be found on hot and dry places and how they survive this hot climate is that they have very strong forelimbs that are used to dig up burrows into the mud for when it gets too hot to go outside . The other difference between the species is there are some turtle species that can go on land but they mostly spend a lot of their time in the water and the type of water that they like to swim in is freshwater they can also be found in the ocean, brackish ponds, and they can also be found in marshland. The front feet of the turtle all have fins that is on their merely webbed toes. On the back of their feet they have streamlines that is right on the back of their feet. These feet comes in handy when they are swimming in the water. The biggest difference between a turtle and tortoise is that the turtle has a lot flatter back and it might spend a lot of its time in the water. The other difference between the turtle and the tortoise is that they live in different kinds of habitats like turtles live in freshwater and the tortoise mostly spend a lot of their time on the surface. The only time that tortoise will go into the water is when they have to get themselves clean or they have to get a drink. Another fact is that tortoises do not know how to swim so that is a really big difference if a tortoise ever goes into very deep water it will normally drown. The other difference is that tortoises do not migrate a lot like sea turtles do. The other main difference between 5
6.
these two species is their diet. Is that tortoises are herbivores and that means that they can only eat plants and the food that they will is grass, flowers, and they can also eat weeds. They can also eat shrubs, cacti and eat so many different types of plants that have a lot of moisture in them they can also eat fruit,The type of food that a tortoise will eat when it is in captivity is leaves. But there are some species of tortoises that can also eat insects, worms and they can also eat carrion which in other words a dead animal. There is a special group that the turtle and the tortoise belong to and it is called chelonians but there is another animal that is also in this group to and they are called Terrapin A Terrapin is a special type of animal that can give birth to live young is on the land and in the water but these animals always seem to be close to the water and the places where they will swim in is places like rivers, ponds and they can also be found in lakes. The Terrapin can also be found in brackish swampy areas to. 2 interesting fact ________________________________________________________ There are about 290 different types of tortoises and turtles and each one of them all have shells on them. The shell of these animals all have 60 different bones that can be found that is in their shells and they are all covered by very big scales so that it can protect them for danger like predators. The turtles have an very flattish shape which really comes in handy when they are swimming in the water. The tortoises are a lot different that is because they have an more domed shell and this can help them to get protection from predators. The turtle and tortoises are two special groups and they are called the hiddennecked and the side neck. The hidden necked turtle and tortoises all know how to pull their heads into their heads inside of their shells and they can do this with their necks. The sides turtles can pull their heads right under the edge of their shells 6
7.
and they can do this by bending their necks sideways. Just like any other turtle in the world they have an very hard shell that acts a lot like an armor and it will protect them from predators. The top part of the turtles shell is called a carapace. There are some turtles that an oval shape on them and there are others that are shaped just like a heart. Sea turtles do not go inside of their shells like other species turtles do. The turtle and tortoises are separated into two groups and those groups are the hiddennecked and the sidenecked turtle groups. The hiddennecked turtles and tortoises all know how to pull their heads into their shells and they can do this by forming the Sshaped curve and they can do this with their necks.The sided turtles can pull their heads right under the edge of their shells and they can do this with their necks sideways. The turtles and tortoises are known to be in the old group of reptiles and these animals have been around for 220 million years all these animals all have a backbone on them. Turtles are known to be the only ones that have shells that have 59 to 61 bones that is all over these special plates that are called scutes and the shells are currently made out of keratin this is the type of stuff that is inside of our fingernails. turtles do not have the ability to crawl under stuff that is because the shell is very attached to the spine and to their rib cage. The top of the shell is called a carapace and the bottom is called the plastron. Turtles can feel pressure and pain right inside of their shells so when they are stressed they can feel it in their shells. It is like the same way that we feel pressure through our fingernails. There are some species of turtles that can pull their heads, legs and into their shells and these types of turtles are called hiddennecked turtles.This is how they can make room in their shell they can sometimes have to breathe out a lot of air out of their lungs this will also make an hissing sound when they are doing this. There are other turtles that can not pull their legs or their heads inside of their shell these species can have very large necks that can help to protect their heads when they are tucking sideways into the shell and these types of turtles are called the sidenecked turtles. A tortoise is not really heavy as that a lot of people might think. A tortoise shell can hold a lot of very small chambers which happens to be very light. The leatherback sea turtle 7

and the softshell turtles all have a rounded, flattened carapace and all over their shells are all covered with tough, leathery skin that will support the turtles small bones. The bone of the shell are known to reduced when they are making their shells flexible when they are making their shells flexible and need it to be so that it can swim and dive in the water. The leatherback sea turtle can dive about 3,000 feet (900 meters) under the oceans surface. 3 interesting fact _______________________________________________________ The turtle and the tortoises do not have ears like we do but these creatures can feel different vibrations and that usually changes it really depends on the pressure of the water and that will tell the theses animals where their food is and if their is a predator somewhere nearby. These animals can smell very well and it can help them when they are looking for food . The turtles and the tortoises that live on land they look leathery and tough but all of these senses that the land turtles and the tortoises are known to be very sensitive. The turtles that live in the water they have some amazing tricks that can help them to stay under the water for a very long time. There are some species that can pump a lot of water in or out of their mouth and out of their throat. This is where the rich line for the blood vessels that can help the turtles to breathe in the water. There are some species that can stay under the water for only one day at a time and they can do this to move the water in and out of their cloaca so that they can gain a lot of oxygen. The turtles that live in Australia are called bum breathers that have large webbed, paddlelike feet that will help the sea turtles to push through the water with ease. There is only one freshwater turtle that has real flippers and they are called a fly river turtle and they can use their flippers like the oceandwelling turtles use.There are a lot of predators that the sea turtle faces but the predator that the sea turtle faces the most is sharks and the shark will go after them is the tiger shark but the 8

tiger shark goes after them the most and humans also harm them to. But the most dangerous time when they are babies the animals that will eat them will be sea birds, crabs and even fish will also eat them as well. Responding ____________________________________________________ Sea turtles spent a lot of their time out on the open ocean but they do go up on land but only when it is time to breed and the females will always use the same beach when she was born in when it is time for them to have babies. This is how sea turtle mothers takes care of their babies first she will go to the beach so that she can lay her babies then the mother will bury it. After the mother is done laying her eggs than the mother will go back into the ocean and then she will leave her babies alone so that they can hatch when they are in the nest that is placed under the sand. When the baby turtles are out of the eggs then they will start to walk into the ocean and then they will start their whole life in the sea. The amount of eggs that the female will lay about is 200 softshelled eggs that will be placed in the sand. The moment that the babies hatch than the babies will head straight to the ocean. It is very hard to be an baby sea turtle that is because they will have to deal with lots of different predators that are always after them like they will be eaten by birds or other predators normally usually only one sea turtle baby will make it to adulthood. A lot of people do not understand on how females can find the place where they were born that is some of the things that people do not understand about them. Turtles and tortoises usually lay leathery eggs. The females can lay about 240 eggs all at one time but it really depends on the species on how many eggs that the female lays. It can take a very long time for the babies are ready to come out of their eggs they will be ready to come out of the eggs in two months or even more than maybe for a whole year. 9
10.
When the female is ready to have babies then she will go to the same beach where she was born so that she can lay her eggs. When night comes than the females will start to haul themselves onto the beach than the mother will start to dig up a very deep hole right into the sand so that the female can lay her eggs in the sand. Then the eggs will be buried in the sand. The eggs would not be able to hatch until for a few months later than the babies will start to dig their way up to the surface. A adult sea turtle faces not a lot predators but only a few will go after an full grown sea turtle but the most dangerous time is when the sea turtle is a baby that is a different story because the babies are very vulnerable when they are born and the mother does not protect them from predators. A mother sea turtle will aly about a lot of eggs onto the beach. They can be found in a hole that the mother duged up then after the mother has laid her eggs than the mother will leave her babies so that they can hatch. So she heads back to the ocean where she was born. The eggs are not being protect meaning they can get eaten by any predator. The danger is not over yet when the eggs hatch then they head straight to the ocean but they are still in trouble from predators trying to eat them because a bird can spout down and grab a baby sea turtle and these babies do not know how to protect themselves from danger. The sea turtle will reach maturity in about 5 or 45 days but it really depends on the type of species. The moment that they hatch then they can reach about the size as an 1 to 3 inches (25 to 76 millimeters) but it all depends on the species. The incubation period is 45 to 70 days. The size of the clutch is 50 200 eggs. 19 clutches per season. The nesting season for the sea turtle is usually during the warmest months of the year. Survival Status ________________________________________________________ The sea turtle faces a lot of threats that is being done by people and the threats that sea turtle is facing is oil spills, habitat loss that is due to 10
11.
development but the most biggest threat to sea turtles is that people keep on throwing their trash into the ocean like people will throw a plastic bag to the sea. When this happens than the sea turtle will think that it is a jellyfish when it is floating in the water this is a problem because than when the turtle eats it then the turtle will die but the sea turtle is not the only animal that is dealing with trash that is being thrown into the ocean and the other animals that is facing this threat is dolphins, whales, sea snakes, fish, and sharks can all be in trouble by us throwing our garbage into the ocean. The sea turtles eggs are also in trouble that is because when they are incubating then the temperature of their surrounding affects the sex of the babies. When the temperature is very high than it will produce a lot of females. When the climate changes then the sand will start to become very warm than when that happens then the ratio of the females and the males will start to become out of balance that will damage on the way on how they breed activities on when the babies start to become adults. There is also a problem with beach communities this is a problem because this can confuse the sea turtles because they think that it looks like the moon or the stars reflection that can become off of the waves and then back into the water this can make the sea turtle very easy target for predators because the light is so bright and the predators can see them. The other problem that the sea turtle is facing is dendration and they can also become road kill as well. There are also some countries that are also selling turtle shells in black markets. People can also harvest the sea turtle’s eggs for food. The sea turtles faces a lot of dangers. The other threat that the sea turtle is faces is that people are building different types of roads, homes and hotels on places where turtles lay eggs and the places where people are taking over are lakes, rivers and seas. This is a problem because this can be very confusing for the sea turtle on where they can lay their eggs because than they will have to find a new place to lay them in a very small area and that also means not a lot of baby sea turtles will be born. Sea turtles also face danger out in the ocean there is problem because sea turtles are getting caught in fishing nets, lines and plastic bags. These items are bad because a sea turtle can get itself 11

tangled and it can also kill them to. The turtles that live all over the world are starting to lose their habitats because they are getting destroyed or polluted. The people that live in china will eat sea turtles. The amount of sea turtles that china eats is about 10 million turtles that are getting eaten by people in china. There are also 180 million softshell turtles that are being raised in farms every single year for consumption that is in china. The turtles that live in North America are starting to loss their habitat is starting to destroy the turtles population because there is not a lot of room for female turtles to lay their eggs because all of the beaches are being taken over by people. There are about 7 different species of sea turtle that live on this planet and all of them are all under threat of extinction one of the problems is that they are getting caught in very big fishing nets. The other threat that the sea turtle is facing is that people are also taking sea turtle eggs away from their nest so that they can eat them. Message from author ________________________________________________________ We must do something to help and to save these amazing animals. These turtles need all the help that they can get.
