Tortoise, a reptile, is a semi-aquatic and semi-terrestrial animal. It takes meat and plants as its main food, is a typical representative of omnivorous animals and is one of the oldest reptiles in existence. Its body is divided into five parts: head, neck, trunk, tail and limbs. It usually likes to breathe in places with water such as rivers and lakes. When it is afraid or in danger, it will lock its head and limbs in the turtle shell to protect itself. Its turtle shell is extremely hard and it is an ordinary animal.
1. What are the benefits and functions of keeping turtles at home?
1, turtle.
In geomantic omen, turtles have the function of ward off evil spirits. If you encounter obstacles in your work, you might as well try to keep a turtle. On the one hand, you can become a companion, on the other hand, you may be able to resolve the unsatisfactory work and get praise from colleagues and bosses. Among the people, there are turtles with the same meaning of longevity.
2, the feeding threshold is low
Turtles walking around the house don't need to take care of three meals a day and go out for a walk at night, like cats and dogs. Turtle is a very hungry animal, and there is not much demand for breeding grounds. If the host is on a business trip for a few days, he can rest assured to leave it at home. Therefore, the tortoise is simply a cactus in plants!
3, will not hinder home safety
I believe that friends who have raised cats and dogs must have had the experience that the sofa was scratched, the vase was broken and there was "gold" everywhere! However, the tortoise won't bring you such trouble at all. If it is really naughty, you can also keep it in a jar, so that it only has that acre of land.
Step 4 increase the chances of making friends
After raising a turtle, you will be a person with a pet. And your breeding experience is the most precious gift for other novice friends. You can post on the Internet to share your experience in raising turtles, and give some reference advice to friends who have just contacted or not, but intend to raise turtles. Moreover, if you meet someone who is interested, then raising turtles can be used as a topic of conversation.
Step 5 increase the amount of exercise
When raising a turtle, you must clean the turtle's tank regularly and occasionally clean the turtle's body. When doing these things, you are actually exercising invisibly! Although such low-intensity exercise can't change your figure in a short time, it has improved the common problems of office white-collar workers-sedentary and low exercise.
Second, shortcomings.
1. It's very tiring to change water for them, but if you don't change water, it will stink easily.
2. Unlike keeping cats and dogs, I don't have enough energy.
