YOU LOOKING AT ME?

Turtles are reptiles of the order Chelonii or Testudines and are characterized by a special bony shell which is developed from their ribs and acts as a shield against predators. Turtles date back around 220 million years making it one of the oldest reptile groups, older than lizards, snakes or crocodiles.

There are 327 known species of turtle alive today and many of them are an endangered species.
