    I've owned turtle all my life and I'm 41, they will not back down and I've had turtles that did not hesitate to take my finger along with the food they were given. Fortunately, I still have all my fingers. But I had a sweet turtle that came by name and knew when it was feeding time by the words I used. Do not underestimate them.

      Bro turtles are also cannibals, I have seen a video of a hunter who was looking for a turtle to catch and cook, he skinned it and sorted it, he left the shell and the carcass waste in his back garden, his motion sensor picked something up he went out to his garden and saw a turtle eating the remains of the the other turtle.

    I have learned SO MUCH about turtles this past year, and almost all of my new knowledge about them is nothing short of AMAZING!! They are smarter, more deadly, FASTER, and more cunning than I would ever have suspected in the past. My new found knowledge has given me a HUGE measure of RESPECT for all Turtles in the future! The main thing I learned is, DO NOT PISS OFF THAT Turtle next to you because he or she is most likely "ONE BAD MUTHA" and will hurt you if he or she feels the need to!

    My Sulcata tortoise grew to be over 150 lbs and would dig tunnels over 40 feet long. The tunnels were big enough that you could crawl all the way into them. My grandkids could ride him. He was very friendly and always wanted to be around you or the other animals. He would keep my lawn mowed.

    Turtle is sometimes used to refer to the order of reptiles Testudines as a whole, sometimes to individual families that make up the order, and is sometimes limited to aquatic species only.
    Tortoise is used to refer to any non-swimming species of Testudines.
    Terrapin is used to describe any species of small, aquatic, hard-shelled turtles.

    And before you smarty pants say tortoises and turtles aren't the same.
    All tortoises are in fact turtles-that is, they belong to the order Testudines or Chelonia, reptiles having bodies encased in a bony shell-but not all turtles are tortoises. One big difference is tortoises are exclusively land creatures

Another was a Snapping Turtle caught one day on a fishing line. We took it home to play with it and observe it, but after watching it snap tree sticks like nothing, determined it to be too dangerous, and took it back to it's pond. Another was a large Painted Turtle found by a river. Meanest Turtle I ever saw, would hiss and attack constantly, returned it back to it's river.

    I have had probably close to 30 turtles over the years. Some I left go, some got away, a few died and some I still have. The first one I ever had bit me on the upper lip, just below my nose. It was a box turtle and I was holding it like a burger and talking. It saw my lips moving and thought it was a worm. It held on just like in these clips and would not let go. When this happens, most box turtles will use it's front claws to help tear the worm or in this case my lip. So I had to hold on to it's legs and relax for about 30 seconds and when it let go to get a better grip, I pulled it away. My sister use to tease me it was my first kiss. lol. My daughter had a similar experience with a turtle as well. Not sure exactly how but she was holding a turtle and came in screaming and bleeding from under he tongue. I have no idea how the turtle bit her there and she never quite explained it.....

    A funny story about my fear of turtles. It stems back to Kindergarten when a stupid teacher forced all of us kids to sit around in a circle and then released a big turtle in the middle. I told her I was scared but Instead of listening and respecting my fear she instead forced me to sit there. Of course the turtle came right over to me so I pushed it away. The turtle was fine but the teacher flipped out and started screaming at me that it's only a turtle and it wasn't going to hurt me. I told her I don't know that and neither do you. Now I see I was totally right to fear that thing with those jaws! She made us sit there with our legs open, that thing could have bit something it thought was a worm! I remember she called my mother and made her come in to talk about this. The teacher was ranting and raving but even as a kindergartener I said when somebody tells you they are scared of an animal you need to respect that and not force it on them. She was all stunned and pissed but couldn't argue. She got schooled by a kindergartener that day. You don't force an animal on somebody if they tell you no. That's how people and animals get hurt.

It’s not as simple one type in the water and one type on dry land, there are differences regarding herbivore / carnivore and shapes of shell and feet / flippers. If you call a reptile with a shell a turtle you are right, whatever type of turtle it is.

    The turtle that tried to "eat" the lizard was a matamata. They don't have the bite force to harm anything too large to fit in their mouths. It's more likely it was trying to scare the lizard away. They rely on the suction created when they open their mouths to catch their prey -- usually small fish -- which they swallow whole.

    In case y’all didn’t know, if you ever get clamped by a turtle or tortoise, try locating its ear holes on the sides of its head and pinch at them with your fingers with a bit of force. This can cause their jaws to loosen up and you’ll be able to get away. However, it would also be nice if you take extra care not to dislocate the turtle’s jaw in the process because it could be painful for them too. Whatever you do, don’t try shaking them off-they’ll bite harder and you’ll both get pretty hurt.

    Narrator: "People view turtles as nice, peaceful creatures."
    Me (has two common snapping turtles, Vuitton and Gucci, as well as an alligator snapping turtle, Versace): "...I beg to differ, pal."
    I have also had the absolute SH#T bitten out of me by an Eastern Box Turtle (even though they are technically tortoises)...
    I called her Isa (ee-sa) and I had found her wondering through what I would refer to as being a concrete jungle and so for her own safety, I decided to relocate her to the mountains near my house.
    During our short time together, I grew rather fond of the old gal. She had prominent wear and tear on her shell which told me that she had been on this Earth for quite some time, probably longer than myself, and she was not shy of humans AT ALL so I suspect she had a decent amount of experience when it comes to human interaction.
    Anywho, for the few days that I had her in my care, I wanted to ensure that she had a natural environment and so I built a temporary enclosure outside and provided her with water, earthworms, crickets, slugs, grasshoppers, mushrooms, and a variety of fruits and vegetables. I noticed her favorite foods that she went absolutely crazy over were slugs, earthworms, grasshoppers, bananas, grapes, and strawberries.
    I brought her inside once and was rewarded with a large amount of dark brown turtle sh*t slung across my white bed sheets... That was entirely my fault and I did not make that mistake again. 🤣
    She was exceptionally smart and would rush to me (in turtle speed) when she seen me with food.
    One evening, I was sitting in her enclosure and hand-feeding banana slices. She had crawled into my lap and all was well until she went to chomp down on a particular banana slice and accidentally latched onto my finger in the process. It was swift but my god was it painful! Trust me when I say that I would've preferred getting bitten by a cat instead of her. It left a lovely gash that gushed of blood and petrified my husband whenever he seen me dashing into the bathroom. I obviously cleaned the wound and contemplated going to the emergency room but I decided it wasn't severe enough to require stitches and so I just slapped a bandaid over it and went on about my business... Today, I have a very evident indention and scar to remind me that turtles aren't just adorable, harmless little beings. I didn't need the leftovers of Isa's bite to remind me of that, however, because as I have already mentioned, I care for two common snappers and one alligator snapper. Though Versace (alligator) is larger and more intimidating in appearance than Gucci and Vuitton, the two of them are 10x more aggressive and ferocious than Versace could ever be.
    As for Isa, I eventually scouted out the perfect area for her to roam about. It was an area that I had seen countless others of her species thriving in throughout the years, deciduous trees and other plant life galore with a few nearby creeks. Something else that I forgot to mention is that I believe Isa may have been carrying eggs. The reason I believe this is because I noticed her expressing nesting behavior several times. Furthermore, the time of year was exactly the time of year that EBT's breed and nest.
    I released her during the morning hours and she was ready to go... And no, she did not pause in her tracks and turn around to say a final farewell. 😂 She just gradually made her way into the shrubbery and I didn't stick around for long. I had done my part and she was safe.
    I hope she is still out there living her best life, producing baby Isa's and keeping the slug population in check. I also hope she didn't find herself back in a heavily populated area and ended up as someone's pet... I cannot stress it enough that EBTs as well as every other wild species does *NOT* belong in captivity. There are exceptions, obviously, but if you find a perfectly healthy creature, please don't take it home and make it your pet. If it requires help then help it but don't keep it... Versace was purchased from a breeder and Vuitton and Gucci were given to me because their original owner didn't want them anymore. I would never find and keep a wild animal and I hope that you wouldn't do such a thing either.

      Yes. My partners tortoise loves having its shell brushed with a stiff paintbrush, it started with us brushing some mud off its shell after it had been on a mission around the garden, the response was different to anything else we’d seen, after that we started brushing it and if you held the brush it would walk under it. Now it’s got a brush screwed to a bit of wood so it can wander under it whenever it wants and we will occasionally sit and brush it. Not my first choice of pet by a long way but it seems like a happy little thing.

Then he was hung up in the summer from a tree for a week. Went to cut it down. It was still alive so we left him alone.

    I have a 4.5yr Russian/horsefield tortoise. Had her since only a couple of months old and she is the most gentle and friendliest thing. She comes when I call her or tap on wall. If she sees me, she'll come to me, at edge of enclosure and crawl up, so she's on her hind legs. It's her way of saying she wants to be picked up. She has never bitten me and i regularly hand feed her. I even put the tiniest little crumbs of food on tip of finger to test her. She'll very slowly go for it and get the food off with her tongue lol. I've taught her 2 tricks. I've semi toilet trained her, so she won't go in her enclosures, but on some tissues on floor and with certain food (brocoli) she goes crazy for it and I can even get her to give me her arm, before I give her a piece lol. They're amazing pets and so intelligent. I reckon they're smarter than some dogs. We have to be very careful on how to lay out her enclosures, because she moves things around and will use them to climb out. We got another tortoise, but got rid off her after a week. She was super violent. She was about 3yrs old and was raised on a tortoise farm and had little to no contact with humans and always always aggressive.

    . American English often uses "turtle" for tortoise, in British English the two terms are not interchangeable, and (for what it's worth) Indian English often uses tortoise as the generic term for both turtles and tortoises. So I guess we're all correct. 👍

    • @Paul_Hanson
      @Paul_Hanson 3 года назад +1

      The snapping turtle is the only turtle I'm familiar with whose bite could cause a human serious damage. The dinner plate sized Mississippi Mud turtles and Red Eared Sliders we have here in Minnesota can't hurt you. I sometimes allow one to bite one of my fingers. Then I lift up my hand and there is a turtle dangling from my finger, but it's easy to persuade him to let go with no harm to the turtle or my finger. Generally speaking these turtles are fairly laid back and may become almost friendly (tolerant may be a better word) once they figure out you are not going to harm them. Snapping turtles, on the other hand, have a very mean disposition as well as a powerful bite. I would never allow a snapping turtle to bite my finger, not even a small one.
      I have a game I like to play with the Mississippi Mud turtles and Red Eared Sliders. If I can coax one to stick his head out of his shell I press down gently on the top of his head or back of the neck. he will invariably respond by resisting the pressure from my finger and arching his neck as if he were trying to right himself after getting turned upside down. They seem to enjoy this game. I suspect that is a reflexive reaction common to all turtles because they all have to get themselves righted after getting turned over once in a while. I'd bet even snapping turtles would enjoy the game, but I don't want to find out how many fingers I'd have to lose before the snapper figured out it was only a game.
