| Video Discription | Many turtles shocked the world for their unique size, appearance and quality. Some of which are amazing because they are extremely cute. Watching teenage mutant ninja turtles in your childhood makes us fall in love with turtles in real life. However, this video will change your concept about turtle. Here are the 20 most amazing turtles in the world. 1. The Rubber Band turtle That’s Mae West, a snapping turtle severely damaged by plastic pollution that 5 Gyres just transported from the east coast to southern California. Mae West was found twenty years ago in the drainage canals of New Orleans. As a tiny hatchling, she inadvertently walked into a plastic milk jug ring and got stuck. As she grew she could not break his plastic belt around her waist. Her shell is permanently deformed, giving her an hourglass-like shape. There is no reason why a single use throwaway item, like a milk jug ring, should be made from a material designed to last forever. This turtle demonstrates that the design of a plastic product matters. 2. Three Headed Turtle Recent discoveries include that in 1999, a three-headed turtle was discovered in Tainan, Taiwan, by a villager named Lin Chi-fa. In 2003, a three-headed angulate tortoise was discovered in South Africa, with the only other known case in the region reported in the early 1980s. So yes a three- headed turtle is real. There are many occurrences of multi-headed animals in mythology. Three-headed people and animals, though rare, have long been known to exist and documented. 3. African Helmeted Turtle This cute animal also known as the marsh terrapin is prevalent throughout Sub-Saharan Africa and Yemen. While its shell can vary from black to tan, it has distinctly wide eyes and a mouth that appears to be perpetually smiling. However, don't be fooled by its friendly demeanor: The African helmeted turtle is omnivorous and will eat almost anything, including carrion. They have been witnessed drowning doves and other relatively large prey, dragging them to the depths of ponds to dine. 4. African Spurred Turtle This cute turtle has impressive "spurs" along its forelegs. Found along the southern edge of the Sahara desert, it is the third largest tortoise species in the world, and the largest mainland tortoise, both the larger Galapagos tortoise and Aldabra giant tortoise are island dwellers. They can grow to two to three feet long over their 50- to 150-year lifespan. 5. Alligator Snapping Turtle The largest freshwater turtle in the world based on weight, the alligator snapping turtle can reach 150 pounds or more. It's found in the southeastern U.S. and gets its name through both its primitive, gator like looks and its ambush-style hunting technique. This funny turtle’s mouth is camouflaged and it has a wormlike appendage on the tip of its tongue to lure in fish, snakes, water birds, and other turtles. 6. Amboina Turtle The Amboina box turtle or Southeast Asian box turtle is a species of an Asian box turtle. These turtles have blackish-brown to olive-brown colored shells that are not as ornate as many other box turtles. All have a blackish olive head with three yellow stripes on the side. The male can be identified by the slightly concave shape of its plastron. There is no specific pattern to what the underbellies may look like. 7. Galápagos Turtle The Galápagos tortoises are native to seven of the Galápagos Islands. Shell size and shape vary between populations. On islands with humid highlands, the tortoises are larger, with domed shells and short necks; on islands with dry lowlands, the tortoises are smaller, with "saddleback" shells and long necks. They are the largest living species of tortoise. Even they can be larger than a horse in weight. An average horse weight is 400 kg. While some modern Galápagos tortoises weighing up to 417 kg and exceeding five feet in length. With average lifespans in the wild of over 100 years, they are one of the longest-lived vertebrates. The oldest on record lived to be 175. 8. Green Sea Turtle Do you dream of diving with sea turtles? Sea turtles and other protected species are accidentally caught in many types of fishing gear, including commercial and recreational gear. Its range extends throughout tropical and subtropical seas around the world, with two distinct populations in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, but it is also found in the Indian Ocean. What we do know is that sea turtles—even at diminished population levels—play an important role in ocean ecosystems by maintaining healthy seagrass beds and coral reefs, providing key habitat for other marine life, helping to balance marine food webs, and facilitating nutrient cycling from water to land. This is why sea turtle conservation is really important. Which one did you like the most? Do you want turtle as a pet?
