Importance TURTLES AND TORTOISES, common name for reptiles that make up the order Chelonia, (also known as Testudines), recognized by a hard shell that encloses the internal organs of the body. Turtles are ancient life forms. The earliest fossils recognized as turtles date from the Triassic period, about 200 million years ago; thus, turtles were in existence prior to the emergence of the great dinosaur groups. Unlike dinosaurs, however, turtles have continued to adapt and flourish. The order Chelonia is divided into two suborders: the Cryptodira, comprising species that pull their heads into the shell by a telescoping movement of the neck; and the Pleurodira, comprising freshwater species that hide their heads by bending the neck sideways. About 250 species are grouped into 9 families. Found only in the temperate or tropical zones, most species are adapted to a freshwater or terrestrial habitat, and a small group to sea life. In American usage the term tortoise refers only to species of a terrestrial, or land-inhabiting, family, belonging to the Cryptodira; all other members of the order are called turtles. In Great Britain the term

Which side is up - "turtle in" or "turtle out"? Pick a colored turtle shell and place it inside the large donut disk to determine which turtle you need to find in the pond. Is it the blue "turtle in"? Turn over one of the circles to try and make a match. If you did, collect a turtle token. If not, turn the circle back over but remember it for later. If you turn over the shuffle circle, you get to try and trick the other players by switching the position of any two turtles in the pond. The game ends when the thirteen turtle tokens have been collected, and the player who has the most wins! What Do You Learn? Builds memory skills and color recognition. Number of players: 2-4.

Main Exotic Pets htmlAdWH('7002414', '234', '60'); Turtles Tortoises Gimme SHELL-ter General Shelled Info All shelled reptiles are Chelonians, but not all Chelonians are the same. There are the aquatics, the semi-terrestrial, and the tortoises. There are vast differences in their care, what works for one will not work for the other. Check out our FAQ's for some answers to health care questions. Box turtles are semi-terrestrials, they are not tortoises, their diet and care is very different from that of the tortoise. Aquatic turtles are not to be kept as if they are fish, even though the housing set up for them is similar to fish. Treating them as if they are fish will kill them. Many species are federally protected, these laws pertain not just to sea turtles, many other species are protected, too. Before investing in a turtle or taking one out of the wild without a clue, please research them thoroughly. They are not cheap to keep, they have specific needs, and frankly I'm tired of seeing people take them home for pets because they are "cool" only to kill them through ignorance.

TURTLE COINS IN ANTIQUITY Turtles appeared on some of the earliest coins ever struck. The earliest coinage of ancient Greece was that of the state of Aegina, an island state reaching its commercial zenith long before Athens came into prominence. Aegina produced its first silver coins about 700 B.C. and these coins depicted excellent likenesses of sea turtles. For the next 300 years (from the 6th century B.C. to the 4th century B.C.), Aegina produced large numbers of coins, all with turtle designs. The earlier coins all depicted sea turtles but after Aegina was occupied by Attic troops in the 5th century B.C., the figure on the coins changed very suddenly to the Marginated Tortoise (Testudo marginate). These Aegean coins were accepted as currency throughout the entire Peloponnesus and were known by most people simply as "turtle". They were struck on a heavier standard than the coins of Athens, causing the Athenians to call them "thick drachmas". After the fall of Aegina, more than two thousand years passed without a single chelonian coin being issued by any government anywhere. Great Britian, Scotland, in 1566 issued a 15 shillings coin with a stylized tortoise climbing a crowned palm tree (Seaby's S-5425). In 1609, Zeeland, Northern Netherlands produced a cooper jeton with turtle. Then, in 1934 the Fiji Islands began issuing six-pence pieces bearing a representation of a Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas). This was the beginning of the modern era of turtle coins.

There you will find an indexed list of links to over a hundred additional websites - - providing lots more information and photographs for different species. Don't miss it! Easier - Turtles are reptiles whose soft body is covered by a hard shell. Most turtles can pull their legs, tail, and head into the shell for protection. Different turtles live on land, in water, or both on land and in water. Some turtles that live on land are called tortoises. A terrapin is a turtle that lives in or near freshwater or partly salty, coastal water. The name terrapin is only used for a group of North American turtles. Harder Today over 40 species of turtles including most sea turtles and many types of tortoises are endangered, and if turtle conservation and protection does not improve, certain species will become extinct. People are their greatest threat. Historically people have sought turtle eggs and meat for food. Turtle shells have been used for ornamentation. Rare exotic turtles have been shipped and trafficked as pets. Turtles are still hunted and captured today; turtle nests are plundered. People further harm turtles by eliminating their natural living areas as forests, swamps, and other areas are transformed for farms and urban growth. Further endangerment comes from continued pollution of their living areas.
