Turtle Non Ninja Version

Description

This African Horned Tortoise is still a very young man.
He is only 15 and will hopefully live another hundred of
years. I told him I would be back as long as I could
to mark his progress and maybe even a family as time
goes on.

Most turtles that spend most of their lives on land
have their eyes looking down at objects in front
of them. Some aquatic turtles, such as snapping
turtles and soft-shelled turtles, have eyes closer
to the top of the head. These species of turtles
can hide from predators in shallow water, where
they lie entirely submerged except for their eyes
and nostrils.

Sea turtles possess glands near their eyes that produce
salty tears that rid their body of excess salt taken
in from the water they drink.
