DID U KNOW - TURTLES | Turtle Facts | the Ancient Creatures of the Sea

Welcome to our video about turtles! Did you know that these fascinating creatures can live up to 150 years? That's longer than most humans! No wonder they take their time and move slowly - they have all the time in the world.

Turtles have a unique sense of smell - they can even detect when it's going to rain! This is thanks to an organ called the Jacobson's organ, which helps them perceive chemical signals. It's helpful for turtles, especially when they're underwater.

While turtles don't have teeth, they do have strong jaws to crush and chew their food. But sometimes, they accidentally bite their own limbs! It's funny to imagine, but it can happen.

Did you know that some turtle species can shed tears? However, they don't cry because they're sad - it's actually a mechanism to flush salt from their eyes. Allergies won't stand a chance against this clever trick.
