Do Turtles Have Ears?". Yes, They Do Sea Turtles, ..
7th Sep 2021, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
"Do turtles have ears?"
Yes, they do! Sea turtles, terrapins, softshell turtles and tortoises have ears. They do not have external ears but they have a thin "flap" or "scale" located behind their eyes, that covers their internal ear bones.
Their inner ear can distinguish certain wavelengths (sound) and vibration in the water and on land. It helps them navigate underwater, and detect changes in water pressure that might indicate a predator is nearby.
To make up for their poor h...

There are two typ...

30th Aug 2021, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
Red-Eared Sliders (RES) are infamously listed as the top 100 worst invasive species in the world. In addition to that, the Department of Wildlife and Natural Parks (PERHILITAN) categorized RES under Animal & Animal-borne Disease in the Invasive Alien Species (IAS) list in Malaysia. Which means they could potentially introduce foreign diseases to other other native wildlife that could also affect human health.
Typically RES hatchlings are illegally smuggled in and sold in pet shops. Their adora...

Depending on the species and size of the turtle, sea turtles typically lay between six and ten clutches of eggs per clutch that contain between 80-180 eggs. The largest sea turtle—the Leatherback turtles—lay approximately 110 eggs per clutch. Meanwhi...
