Terrified Turtles

Today we have been talking about turtles. We tried hiding our heads and arms - just like a turtle retracts its limbs to protect itself from predators!

Here is a video of Theodore, Alofa, Hayzel and Loveday sharing their knowledge about sea turtles.

Wow! You know a lot about turtles. I have only seen a turtle once. It was in a big glass fish tank in Napier. Have you seen a turtle?

I saw a turtle in the Beijing Aquarium in the zoo. This baby was touching the flipper and shell. (I don't think he was supposed to)There were many kinds of sea creatures. Like beluga whales. I have never seen them before in NZ.

Hi A4,
I loved listening to you talk about the turtles. Why do the little turtles have to watch out for seabirds?

Hi Mr F and Room 13, thank you for your comment. Some of us have seen turtles at the zoo!

Sea turtles have to watch out for birds because they grab the turtles with their beaks when they are trying to run to the sea.
