Facts About Turtles

I am an animal lover and one of my favorite animal besides cats, are turtle. I love the small turtles. There are many interesting facts about turtles that I didn’t know until I saw a documental the other day. To start off turtles have been on earth for 200 years more or less.

For some reason I thought that turtles can completely come out of their shell, but I found out that that’s not true. Some facts about them that called my attention were that there are about 300 species of turtles; you can find turtles in every continent except in Antarctica. Did you know what it is called to a group of turtles? The answer is “BALE”, interesting huh? Another interesting fact is that not all turtles have hard shells; for example the sea turtls have a flexible shell. A funny fact that I also find out is that turtles breath by their anus.
