*Turtles regulate the energy flow of a given environment.
*Turtles are among the most threatened groups of animals on the planet. More than 1/2 of their 300 species are threatened with extinction. Primary threats include habitat loss & degradation, high-volume unsustainable consumptive exploitation for FOOD & medicinal products & illegal pet trade.
*Turtles make up a significantly higher percentage of an ecosystem’s biomass than most other animals
*Many herbivorous and omnivorous turtles consume seeds, which then germinate and grow into full plants.
*Turtles have nerve endings in theirs shells, they are not very sensitive but transmit vibrations. Now that’s a vibe✨
