Hello readers,
Last week I worked on my new information report for you guys.It is about turtles and tortoises.I tried really hard to make this perfect.I think i did a really good job on this and some of these paragraphs are AMAZING!This has been one of my best info reports yet.(Even though I have only done 2).I hope you like this and learn something interesting about Turtles and Tortoises.Enjoy
Turtles and tortoises.You probably know barely anything about them.Except that they have a hard shell and move very slowly.You may know more but in this information report you will learn what they eat,their dangers,their predators,what they look like and where they live.So read on.
Ever wondered what turtles and tortoises eat?Sea turtles love eating jellyfish and sea snails.As for tortoises, they like eating plants when they're older and meat when they're younger.They also like eating bananas.Bet you never knew that!You may think they eat completely different foods, but some foods they both eat.Which is worms...and gross algae which is that gooey green moss that floats in swamps and fish tanks.Sea turtles obviously live the sea which means they eat thing found in the ocean such as, crabs, shrimp, lobster,sea urchins and fish.
As for the tortoises live on land which means they eat kale,dandelions and veggies.
Want to know where turtles and tortoises live?Tortoises live in hot places like Africa,Australia,Europe,North america and Asia.Sea turtles live in the ocean.They live in the Pacific ocean,the Atlantic ocean and the Indian ocean.But they do move around a lot.
You may not think that turtles and tortoises have many dangers but they do!As you know there’s millions of pieces of rubbish in the ocean and Sea turtles think they're jellyfish.In many parts of Asia, turtle hatch lings are eaten!People are fishing up Sea turtles and suffocating them.
Guess what...turtles and tortoises scute(their shell) is made out of bone! Turtles and tortoises have very scaly skin, which proves they are reptiles.Their bone scute has a beautiful pattern which helps them camouflage.They have long clear nails and have colour vision as well.They have big mouths which is good for catching food and eating, big meals.They have colossal flippers that look like a paddling stick!They have very small legs that look so cute.When they stick their head out you can see their wrinkly neck.They also have no teeth.
So know that you have read this information report, you know what turtles and tortoises eat,their dangers,their predators,where they live and what they look like.Turtles and tortoises are very interesting reptiles.
Thank you for reading my work

Have you ever seen a Turtle or tortoise?If you have comment where, when and what it looked like.There are different types of Turtles.It could of been the Yangtze giant soft shell turtle, which is the rarest turtle in the world.But if you haven't seen a turtle, comment what you would do if you saw one.
Have a nice day
