A funny story about how a huge turtle was turned over by the North Wind. And everything turned upside down for the turtle: dreams, notes, and words...

The Tale of the Upside Down Turtle read

It was a long time ago. But not much. Some still remember this strange story.
During a big storm with a turtle named I have nowhere to hurry, misfortune happened. Not some small misfortune there, but the most that neither is big. And the Cold North Wind was to blame for everything. He blew so hard and unexpectedly that the tortoise I'm in a hurry turned over on its back.
The cold North Wind flew away, but the tortoise remained upside down. And no one could help her in trouble. Still would! After all, there was no hurry for me to go anywhere of great magnitude. And her shell weighed as much as five hundred kilograms, and maybe even a thousand.

The animals consoled the tortoise as best they could. But they were not strong enough to turn her over. At the time, no one knew what it would lead to.
And it started with nonsense. The tortoise began to rush to me with nowhere to dream of inverted dreams.
In these dreams, the rains fell from earth to heaven. The rivers ran back. The ships sailed in the opposite direction.
So it was in the dream. And in reality, the turtle I’m in no hurry to see and hear everything upside down.

And even the notes in the songs she sang in the morning turned over so that all the familiar melodies became an empty set of sounds.
The turtle instantly turned over all the words and even whole sentences. And for those who did not know about it, it seemed that I was in no hurry to speak in some unknown foreign language.
She said: "Tevirp". It meant "Hello".
The tortoise asked: "Aled how?" It should have been understood like this: “How are you?”
At first, the turtle I was in no hurry was poorly understood. Gradually, they began to get used to her conversation. Rhino responded when called "Goroson".

The crocodile responded in response to the Lidokork appeal.
Needless to say, the toad was pleased when it was addressed in this way:
- Abaj, tevirp!
Before it sounded less affectionate and gentle:
- Toad, hello!
The beasts enjoyed turning words around so much as they spoke that they almost turned their entire animal language inside out.
Yes, there are animals! Even the boys ran through the streets and shouted:
- Aru! Aru! Aru!

And before they shouted:
- Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!
Who knows what troubles the upside-down tortoise would have done. True, some people sometimes turned words out of habit. But soon even the most forgetful and disobedient did not like it.

Thank you for your attention.

The tortoise is an animal of the chordate type, reptile class, order of the turtle (Testudines). These animals have existed on planet Earth for over 220 million years.

The turtle received its Latin name from the word "testa", meaning "brick", "tile" or "clay vessel". The Russian analogue comes from the Proto-Slavic word čerpaxa, which in turn comes from the modified Old Slavic word "čerpъ", "shard".

Turtle - description, characteristics and photos

turtle shell

A characteristic feature of turtles is the presence of a shell, which is designed to protect the animal from natural enemies. turtle shell consists of dorsal (carapace) and ventral (plastron) parts. The strength of this protective cover is such that it easily withstands a load exceeding the weight of a turtle by 200 times. The carapace consists of two parts: an inner armor made of bone plates, and an outer one made of horny shields. In some species of turtles, the bone plates are covered with dense skin. The plastron was formed thanks to the fused and ossified sternum, clavicles and abdominal ribs.

Depending on the species, the size and weight of the turtle vary significantly.

Among these animals, there are giants weighing more than 900 kg with a carapace size of 2.5 meters or more, but there are small turtles whose body weight does not exceed 125 grams, and the shell length is only 9.7-10 cm.

Turtle head and eyes

turtle head has a streamlined shape and medium size, which allows you to quickly hide it inside a safe haven. However, there are species with large heads that do not fit well or not at all in the shell. In some representatives of the genus, the tip of the muzzle looks like a kind of "proboscis" ending in nostrils.

Due to the peculiarities of the way of life on land, the eyes of the turtle look at the ground. In water representatives of the detachment, they are located closer to the crown and are directed forward and upward.

The neck of most turtles is short, however, in some species it can be comparable to the length of the carapace.

Do turtles have teeth? How many teeth does a turtle have?

To bite off and grind food, turtles use a hard and powerful beak, the surface of which is covered with rough bumps that replace teeth. Depending on the type of food, they can be razor-sharp (in predators) or with jagged edges (in herbivores). The ancient turtles that lived 200 million years ago, unlike modern individuals, had real teeth. The tongue of turtles is short and serves only for swallowing, not for capturing food, so it does not protrude.

Limbs and tail of turtles

A turtle has 4 legs in total. The structure and functions of the limbs depend on the lifestyle of the animal. Species that live on land have flattened forelimbs adapted for digging soil, and powerful hind legs. Freshwater turtles are characterized by the presence of leathery membranes between the toes on all four paws that facilitate swimming. In sea turtles, the limbs in the process of evolution were transformed into peculiar flippers, and the size of the front ones is much larger than the back ones.

Almost all turtles have a tail, which, like the head, is hidden inside the shell. In some species, it ends in a nail-like or pointed spike.

Turtles have well-developed color vision, which helps them in finding food, and excellent hearing, which allows them to hear enemies at a considerable distance.

Turtles molt, as do many reptiles. In land species, molting affects the skin in a small amount; in aquatic turtles, molting occurs imperceptibly.

During molting, transparent shields peel off from the shell, and the skin from the paws and neck comes off in tatters.

The life expectancy of a turtle in natural conditions can reach 180-250 years. With the onset of winter cold or summer drought, turtles go into hibernation, the duration of which can exceed six months.

Due to the weakly expressed sexual characteristics of turtles, it is very difficult to determine which of the animals is a “boy” and which is a “girl”. Nevertheless, if you approach the issue with care, having studied some of the external and behavioral characteristics of these exotic and interesting reptiles, then finding out their gender will not seem so difficult.

• shell

In the female, it usually has a more elongated, elongated shape compared to the male.

• Plastron (lower shell)

Turn the turtle over and look at it carefully - the shell from the side of the abdomen closer to the anus in female turtles is flat, in males it is slightly concave (by the way, this nuance facilitates the mating process).

• Tail

In male turtles, the tail is slightly longer, wider and thicker at the base, most often bent down. The tail of the "ladies" is short and straight.

• anal opening (cloaca)

In females, it is somewhat closer to the tip of the tail, shaped like an asterisk or a circle compressed on the sides. In male turtles, the anus is narrow, oblong, or slit-shaped.

• claws

In almost all species, except for the leopard tortoise, the claws of males on the forelimbs are longer than those of females.

• notch at the tail

Male turtles have a V-shaped notch at the back of the shell, which is necessary for mating turtles.

• Behavior

Male turtles are most often more active, and during the mating season they are distinguished by aggressiveness towards the opponent and towards the “lady of the heart”, they chase her, trying to bite, nod their heads in a funny way. The female at this time can calmly observe the "courtship", hiding her head in the shell.

• Some species of turtles have specific differences between females and males, such as color, size, or head shape.

Types of turtles - photo and description

The turtle squad consists of two suborders, divided by the way the animal puts its head into its shell:

• Hidden neck turtles, folding the neck in the form of the Latin letter "S";
• Side-necked turtles, hiding their heads towards one of the front paws.

According to the habitat of turtles, there is the following classification:

• Sea turtles (live in the seas and oceans)
• Land turtles (live on land or in fresh water)
  • Land turtles
  • freshwater turtles

In total, there are more than 328 species of turtles, forming 14 families.

Varieties of land turtles

• Galapagos tortoise (elephant) (Chelonoidis elephantopus)

The length of the shell of these turtles can reach 1.9 meters, and the weight of the turtle can exceed 400 kg. The size of the animal and the shape of the shell depend on the climate. In arid regions, the carapace is saddle-shaped, and the limbs of the reptile are long and thin. The weight of large males rarely exceeds 50 kg. In a humid climate, the shape of the dorsal carapace becomes domed, and the size of the animal increases significantly. The elephant tortoise lives in the Galapagos Islands.

• Egyptian tortoise (Testudo kleinmanni)

small representative of land turtles. The size of the carapace of males barely reaches 10 cm, females are slightly larger. The color of the shell of this species of turtles is brownish-yellow with a small border along the edges of the horny scutes. The Egyptian tortoise lives in northern Africa and the Middle East.

• Central Asian tortoise (Testudo (Agrionemys) horsfieldii)

a small reptile with a shell size up to 20 cm. The carapace has a rounded shape and is colored in yellowish-brown tones with darker spots of an indefinite shape. On the front limbs, these turtles have 4 fingers. The most popular type of turtle for home keeping, lives about 40-50 years. It lives in Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Syria, northeastern Iran, northwestern Pakistan and India.

• leopard turtle (panther turtle) (Geochelone pardalis)

The length of the carapace of this turtle exceeds 0.7 m, and the weight can reach 50 kg. The shell of this species of turtles is high and has a domed shape. Its coloration has sandy-yellow tones, in which the juveniles clearly show a spotted pattern of black or dark brown, which disappears as they grow older. This type of turtle lives in Africa.

• Cape spotted turtle ( Homopus Signatus)

world's smallest turtle. The length of her carapace does not exceed 10 cm, and the weight reaches 95-165 grams. Lives in South Africa and southern Namibia.

Types of freshwater turtles

• Painted turtle (decorated turtle) (Chrysemys picta)

A rather small species of turtles with individual sizes from 10 to 25 cm. The upper part of the oval dorsal shell has a smooth surface, and its color can be either olive green or black. The skin has the same color but with different stripes of red or yellow tone. They have leathery membranes between their toes. Lives in Canada and the USA.

• European bog turtle (Emys orbicularis)

The size of individuals can reach up to 35 cm, and weight 1.5 kg. The smooth, oval carapace is movably connected to the plastron and has a slightly convex shape. Representatives of this species have a very long tail (up to 20 cm). The color of the upper shell is brown or olive. The color of the skin is dark with yellow spots. The turtle lives in Europe, the Caucasus, and Asia.

• Red-eared turtle (yellow-bellied turtle) (Trachemys scripta)

The shell of these turtles can be up to 30 cm long. Its bright green coloring in young individuals eventually turns into yellow-brown or olive. Near the eyes on the head there are two spots of yellow, orange or red. This feature gave the species its name. lives in the USA, Canada, in the north-west of South America (in the north of Venezuela and Colombia).

• Cayman turtle (biting) (Chelydra serpentina)

A characteristic feature of the turtle is a cruciform plastron and a long tail, which is covered with scales with small spikes, as well as the skin of the head and neck. The size of the shell of these turtles can reach 35 cm, and the weight of an adult animal is 30 kg. The caiman tortoise waits out unfavorable conditions in hibernation. This turtle lives in the USA and in the southeast of Canada.

Sea turtle species

• Turtle hawksbill (true carriage) (Eretmochelys imbricata)

The carapace of these turtles has the shape of a heart up to 0.9 m in size. The upper layer of the shell is painted in brown tones with a pattern in the form of multi-colored spots. In young individuals, the horny plates overlap each other like tiles, but as it grows, the overlap disappears. The front flippers of the animal are equipped with two claws. The hawksbill lives both in the latitudes of the northern hemisphere and in the southern countries.

• Leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea)

it is the largest tortoise in the world. The span of its front flipper-like limbs reaches 2.5 meters, the mass of reptiles is more than 900 kg, and the dimensions of the shell exceed 2.6 m. The surface of the upper shell is covered not with keratinized plates, but with dense skin, for which the species got its name. The turtle lives in the tropical regions of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans.

• Green turtle (soup turtle) (Chelonia mydas)

The weight of the turtle ranges from 70 to 450 kg, and the size of the shell is from 80 to 150 cm. The color of the skin and carapace can be either olive with a green tint or dark brown with various spots and stripes of white or yellow. The tortoise shell has a small height and oval shape, and its surface is covered with large horny shields. Due to the large size of the head, these reptiles do not hide it inside. The green turtle lives in tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.

Turtles are one of the most ancient reptiles that currently live on Earth. These amazing animals descended from discosauryxes - amphibians that lived in the southern part of Eurasia 300-500 million years ago. Approximately by the middle of the Permian period, discosauryxes acquired some of the features characteristic of reptiles.

Turtles appeared on our planet about 200 million years ago, and about 135 million years ago, that is, in the Cretaceous period, according to scientists, there were about 26 families of turtles on Earth (currently there are only 12). Interestingly, the turtles have not changed much since then.

The closest relatives of modern tortoises, proganochelis, lived in Europe and Asia during the Late Triassic (200 million years ago). It is worth noting that these animals, like turtles, had a shell and beak of a tortoise type. However, unlike modern turtles, proganochels did not have the ability to retract their head and limbs into the shell. However, they did not need this, since the head and legs of these reptiles were protected by hard scales.

Currently, there are 5 suborders of turtles, 3 of which are the main ones: side-necked, hidden-necked and shieldless turtles. The other two suborders are descended from the hidden turtles.

Some researchers attribute the leatherback sea turtle to a special suborder of the shieldless turtles, which differ from all other turtles not only in appearance, but also in their internal structure. Their carapace, unlike that of other turtles, consists of a layer of small interconnected polygonal bone plates and is not fused to the spine and ribs.

In addition, the shell of the leatherback sea turtle is covered with skin on top with many small horny scutes. And with age, the skin becomes smooth and even. Many scientists believe that the ancestors of leatherback turtles were archelons (archelon ischyros) - animals that lived in the seas of South Dakota more than 65 million years ago. The fossilized remains of this giant (weighing about 3 tons, up to 4 m long) were found in the flat areas of the central states of the United States, where the waters of the Niobar Sea once stretched.

It is worth noting that the evolution of turtles belonging to different suborders proceeded independently of each other, therefore there are very significant differences in their structure and appearance.

Archelon fossils

For example, side-necked and hidden-necked turtles appeared during the Middle Triassic, and the names of these reptiles indicate the ways in which they retract their head under the shell. The side-neck folds the neck horizontally, bending it with the letter S and pressing it to the base of the limb, and the hidden neck - vertically.

Snake-necked turtles are found in South America and Australia, most land tortoise species are found in Central and South Africa, and freshwater turtles are common in Southeast Asia.

Side-necked turtles have practically not changed over millions of years, as evidenced by the remains of the inhabitants of the Cretaceous period found during excavations.

Currently, side-necked turtles are found only in the southern hemisphere of our planet: in Africa, Australia, New Guinea, Madagascar and South America.

Hidden-necked turtles, or cryptodirs, are the most common group of turtles. It is believed that during the Middle Triassic period, these animals lived only in swampy areas, but over time they adapted to live both on land, including desert and forest-steppe regions, and in water. In addition, their survival was facilitated by the fact that they ate a variety of food - plant and animal.

About 150-200 million years ago, in the Jurassic, a suborder of soft-bodied turtles emerged from the group of crypto-necked turtles. These animals adapted to life in the water, and gradually their carapace became less massive, thanks to which the animals gained the ability to swim at a fairly high speed. Currently, soft-bodied turtles are considered the fastest of all species. They are able to move at high speed not only in the aquatic environment, but also on land.

The ancestors of caiman turtles lived in the Eocene, that is, approximately 38-55 million years ago. After examining the fossil remains of these animals, scientists came to the conclusion that the shell of the ancient caiman turtles was rather soft, and therefore the reptiles could not defend themselves in the event of an attack by predators and, in order not to become their prey, they preferred to attack first, showing aggressiveness unusual for turtles. By the way, modern caiman turtles behave in a similar way. That is why they are not kept in home terrariums.

It is believed that the modern species of hidden turtles originated in the Cretaceous period. This is evidenced by the fossils of the green turtle and the loggerhead found in the rocks, which scientists refer specifically to the cryptocervical ones.

One of the most unusual turtles in the evolutionary chain is the so-called horned turtle, about which the scientific community has been arguing for a long time. The fact is that some scientists classify horned turtles as ... dinosaurs, while most scientists classify these extinct animals as reptiles.

The view of the horned turtles was truly terrifying. In length, the animals reached 5 m. These reptiles had a huge tail, the same length as the shell, with two rows of bone spikes, clearly used to protect against enemies. The turtle's skull had a triangular shape, it had long, slightly blunt, sideways and backward horns, which the animal also used for protection.

kinix bella

There are holes in front and behind the shell, into which the animal, in case of danger, can remove the limbs and head. In some species of turtles, the movable parts of the shell, if necessary, can completely cover one or both openings.

As a child, he loved to watch cartoons about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Well, who didn't love it? And here, in the kin, the other day they showed about them. Wanted to buy.
Bought. Funny creature. There is no benefit from it, but no harm either. Bliiin. I'd rather buy some fish. This animal took six months of my life. Not only that, brake, comatose, I would even say, it also gets underfoot.
And he doesn't sleep at night. Nope. Something scratches, rustles in the corners all the time, mumbles something, or eats constantly, or even rests its tower against the wall, and slips until the morning. She has no reverse gear. And sleep hunting.
And then there are two options, either get up, push his wife, turn on the light, raise the bed, find this bulldozer and hit on the neck, or be imbued with love and endure until this creature subsides. In the morning.
Well, at night, byvat, it’s necessary to go to the toilet, or to the refrigerator, to profit from something, to go, and here this animal crawls crazy in the dark. I stumble, I fall, so as not to strangle the foul creature. The wife is generally frightened, unaccustomed yet.
To designate a creature in the night, I screwed a battery and an LED on its roof, in a flashing mode. Now at night I have a moon rover under my beds, shining so blue, pew-pew-pew. It can be seen well awake. But still, the horn rests and skids. I thought what would it be. Doper. Here, try to drive a car in the dark, what, huh? Here.
I stuck a super bright LED on her shoulder. Headlights, sort of. It immediately became more sleepy. She crawls now, and she can see everything. And then she wandered in the dark, like a blind muskrat. Solved one problem. Armor is good. Tokma, this lunar rover travels painfully slowly. Yeah. Then, I stuck small wheels to her from below. The turtle was stunned at first, from such speeds, accelerations and prospects, and then nothing, got used to it. I even learned to drive a little.
You put it on the floor, you set the direction, and it rows, with its paws. It's expensive to look at. At night, she even has some maneuvers, under cabinets and beds. Have fun, you bastard. Current guests are sometimes scared. They are sitting, and here it is from under the sofa in light bulbs and rolls out on wheels, turns its tower importantly, estimates the route, and rolls in the other direction. The guests are in shock, the turtle too. Who said they were brainless, huh?
Figo. Somehow teased her. He poked his face with his finger, but while it figured out what and how, it did not have time to bite me. Well, he poked it on the floor and lowered it. On wheels. It rolled a bit, I forgot. Then this bastard, with her headlights illuminated me, crept up from the corner while I was watching a movie and grabbed my little finger! So think, now, whether she has brains or not.
Almost lost her once, really. Let's go to nature, drink and eat, and my comatose crawled into the grass. It does not respond to cries, and itself will not crawl back. There are so many goodies around! Gobies there, chips. Somehow we found it later, it was eating shoto right at the trash can. But nothing. Then I stuck a flag from McDonald's on her roof with plasticine. Crawling now on the grass with a bright flag - always visible.
