Turtles Are Anti-Social
Turtles do not seem like an anti-social creature, but they can be depending on the situation. Gatherings of turtles look very social, which gives people the wrong idea. The truth is, turtles do not have an issue being around other turtles. However, they do not interact much. This is made even worse when other animals are put into the equation. Turtles may just ignore them entirely. While they are slow, they are active creatures and spend their time foraging for food instead of interacting.

Turtles Aren’t Good Parents
Turtles are not the most attentive of parents to their young. In fact, they aren’t attentive at all. When mating is completed, the females tend to find a suitable place on land for egg-laying. This is usually in sand or dirt. A nest is usually dug, followed by the laying of the eggs. This is the most the female does in the way of nurturing. There are no species of turtle that engage in the nurturing of their young.
