Turtle

Turtles are slow-walking reptiles with hard shell on their back. They can use their shells as a form of defence and retreat into them when threatened. turtles use their flippers to swiftly swim through the water, but these flippers also make them very slow and unwieldy on land. To lay their eggs turtles will always return to the same beach that they have been hatched on themselves. These beaches are made out of fine soft sand which makes it easy to dig a nest in with their flippers and isn't to harsh on their shells. An average nest can include as much as 110 eggs, of which only 5% will reach maturity.

Culture
Turtle's are revered as messengers of the Azen by the Tortle people of the Wabu Islands. Their are especially sacred to the goddess of the sea, Shima, for the dedication and struggle that they put themself through to lay their eggs.
