Turtles can be raised as pets at home, but their IQ is generally relatively low, unlike puppies, kittens and other pets that have a lot of interaction with people. However, there are some species of tortoise IQ is relatively high, such as the Brazilian red-eared tortoise, in all the tortoise species is one of the more intelligent. They are still quite spiritual, and after a period of careful breeding, they may recognize people.
After recognizing the owner, the Brazilian red-eared turtle will interact with the owner and follow the instructions of the owner. They will show intimacy to their owners and show first place to strangers. If they are on the ground, they will be very happy to run to meet their owners when they approach, and they will follow their owners when they leave. However, it takes a long time for the Brazilian red-eared turtle to recognize people, and patience is needed.
As mentioned above, the Brazilian red-eared turtle can recognize people, but the time it takes is relatively long, sometimes it takes a month or even several months. However, there are some ways to make the Brazilian red-eared turtle recognize people faster. For example, we need to be able to breed Brazilian red-eared turtles when they are relatively young, and if we start with an adult turtle, it will be difficult for them to recognize people.
Another important aspect is feeding. It must be fed regularly, and each time it must be fed by the owner himself. The feeder cannot feed halfway. This will allow the tortoise to recognize people more quickly, perhaps even within a week or so.
