TORTOISE. People this is a tortoise! Turtles have much sleeker shells, thinner, allowing them to swim faster. Not to mention turtles have webbed hands and feet. Tortoises (as far as I know) would just sink if you put them out of their depth in water.
A proper home for these torts is a sand bed and rocks to keep their nails and beak trimmed.
I have a russian tort; she chews on rocks and walks in sand. It keeps her beak and claws nice and trim.
Tortoises ARE technically "turtles". "Turtles" refers to the classification family called "Chelonians". All tortoises are technically "turtles" but most turtles are not tortoises. Tortoises are a minority of the family "Turtles". Cherish your egyptians, they are very endangered.
You should cover that glass up so that the tortoise doesent see what is outside. The glass is causing it stress and constant desire for escape. thats why its going back and forth but in other cases its perfectly normal.
Well this tortoise is at the zoo, so I can't do anything about the glass, and since he's at the zoo, I don't think they would cover the glass up anyways...They've improved the exhibit greatly since I made this video though and he doesn't do this now...
@riseld4 exactly and on top of all that what you've just said she is scratching her nose on the glass.....the fact that it's a zoo is making it even worse coz they should know better
this behaviour is normla for tortoises...when my tortoises were doing this for the first time,i thought they were ill,but people i know,who have tortoises too,said that their tortoises were behaving like this too^^!
I used to think " yea learn the difference!" but it actually depends where youre from,in america theyre all turtles but in uk and australia turtle=marine tortoise=land terrapin=freshwater
I noticed it didn't have them threaded anymore but I still get e-mail updates...
It is animal abuse anyway you look at it. This is the exact same equaliavent of putting a dog in a card board box. Think about it. How obvious does it need to be for you to understand abuse?
Yeah, this zoo isn't the best...It's a small community, and this environment wasn't the best at the moment I took this video, but it's better now...You can see how it looks now in the Video Response.
The reason he is sratching on the glass is it is highly stressed trying to escape. Keeping a tortoise in a small glass tank where they can see out but not get out is literally torture...this kind of captivity has been proven to take years off of their lifespan.
you only had -2 down, because of the basic humans mind, that really think that that is a turtle dance.
Humans are the only irrationals in this world.
And you are totally right, I'm a professional in turtles care, and that turtle is scratching because of is environment and life conditions. I can have -6, spam flagged on this comment, normally that happens because people don't like to see the truth, they only like to fake that a unhappy turtle video is a funny turtle dance. wahoooo.
I do disagree with 'tortoise tanks' as yes they are bad for them. However it's not thier tortoise as they said and all tortoises do this even outside or a proper enclosure with the bet of ventelation, any tortoise owner will tell you that they're always attempting escape no matter what.
this is cruel! turtles by nature are wanderers. to put this turtle in an aquarium behind glass is wrong. You're turtle is not dancing, it is trying to do what it does by nature....WANDER!!
TORTOISE NOT FRIGGIN TURTLE! Turtle's Swim, live in the ocean/land, Tortoise's live inland allway's cannot swim ~ and are better :) I have one Shootingpegstar type it in, and subscribe
