    Interesting. So far the only animal/reptile I’ve seen maintain the same expression before and after :)

  2. So…does a turtle has both and endo and exoskeleton? Does the shell count as a skeleton? Inquiring minds want to know.

      Actually, the shell is not bone. The shell is living and growing. Its not the same as nails or bone, more like a really thick flesh.

    Slight problem, its a tortoise not a turtle :)
