The Brazilian tortoise is not a national protected animal, but an alien species, which is recognized as an ecological killer in the world. Because they have a strong ability to adapt to the environment, and the amount of reproduction is relatively large, they will also compete for the resources of native turtles. In addition, they have no natural enemies in our country, so after a period of release, they will threaten the survival of native tortoises and destroy the local ecological environment.
