Really? They come up on land with those flippers?
Most turtles don’t have flippers. Sea turtles are pretty much the only ones with flippers.
never seen a video of sea turtles laying eggs in the sand, covering them and returning to the water?
I think of the snappers and box turtles near me. They spend most of their time in the water, but you still see them in the brush next to hiking paths or even crossing roads.
