, the tortoise is not necessarily dead, it may also be hibernating. If you want to judge whether it is dead or hibernating, you need to observe it first to see if it has a slight movement, which is alive. You can also try to stretch its limbs to see how it reacts. If it retracts after stretching, it is still alive. If it does not react, it is dead. It is best to dispose of it as soon as possible.
are the causes of tortoise death? 1. Natural death: Although it is said that the tortoise is a thousand-year-old tortoise, in fact, the life span of the tortoise is far from so long. Generally, the pet tortoise can live for about 15-25 years. Therefore, if it has been raised for so long, it may die of natural causes. If it is properly raised and managed, it can also live longer.
2. Disease factors: If the tortoise is not treated in time after illness, it will also lead to its death. There are many diseases that threaten it, such as white eye disease, rotten skin disease, rotten nail disease, pneumonia and so on.
