1. Living environment: Usually the turtles we mentioned are terrapins. Some of them live in rivers, lakes or swamps, but they are basically in fresh water. Of course, there are also some turtles belonging to tortoises, which mainly live on land, while turtles live in the ocean.
2. Appearance difference: You can see the difference between the turtle and the sea turtle at a glance, because the turtle's limbs are still claws, while the sea turtle has specialized into limbs similar to fish fins, and the forelimbs are much larger than the hind limbs, which facilitates its swimming in the water, but it will also be weaker in crawling.
3, feeding habits are different: turtles are omnivorous animals, but according to different species, preferences are different, terrapins usually like to eat meat, tortoises prefer to eat plants.Turtles live in the ocean, usually mainly feeding on cephalopods, fish and crustaceans, occasionally eating algae.
Sea turtles live in the ocean, so the limbs have been specialized, the shape is more like fins.But because of this, its limbs need to be outside all the time, while turtles can put their limbs away, in this way, when they encounter danger or enemy creatures, they can make the other side unable to start, so as to escape.In addition, although turtles do not have teeth, there are many prickles in the throat of turtles, which look like teeth and can grind food.
