Tortoises

The Tortoises are a unique land turtle. This tortoise species is distributed in temperate areas. The characteristics of the juvenile turtles are not big, but the carapace of the adult turtles will have a significant tilt, so it is called the edge-warped tortoise. This can also be used as an important basis for distinguishing males and females. , because the male turtle's adult experience is particularly significant.

The adult tortoise is 30cm~35cm. Weighing about 5 kilograms, the male turtle is larger than the female turtle. The male turtle is characterized by a concave carapace and a thick and long tail. The resting areas are mainly mountainous, and the resting height is about 1,600 meters. Their body shape and color are adapted to this. Changed from alpine survival, the black color of the carapace is useful, because the black carapace is to quickly absorb heat energy during the short period of sunlight and help them maintain body temperature.

The tortoise is a medium-sized tortoise native to Greece. Adults can grow to 12 to 14 inches, making them one of the largest of the Mediterranean species. The rear edge of the male tortoise's carapace is wide and trumpet-shaped, so it is called a warped edge. Males are often smaller, but longer than females, and have long, thick tails.

The rimed tortoise is the largest of the Wendai tortoises, but it is only slightly larger than 30 cm. Compared with the hot tortoise, it is still a small to medium-sized tortoise. Their most special feature is that the rear edge of their carapace opens in a fan shape, a structure that is not similar to other tortoises and is particularly special. This skirt-like structure is particularly noticeable in male turtles, but not in juvenile turtles.
