Turtles are so damn awesome! Seriously. Now I wish I was a turtle. Just kinda sittin' there, doing whatever, watching everything else come and go, everything changing. That's really cool.

Thank you for posting some valuable information for my files. This coming February, I will probably have to teach about reptiles.

thats one of the most recent discoveries, it's cool. Keep them healthy and they live forever. But then....Now they'll start killing turtles to find out how we can take from them their secret of long life...wow...

now they'll go extinct faster too...
