Reminds me of the Kiwi video I saw a few years back. I think it was the first viral video I ever saw.

A sea turtle at my local aquarium got stuck between some boulders and the water filter. I was worried the poor thing was gonna drown. Thankfully it eventually freed itself.

[–]doublsh0t 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It makes me wonder why this sort of problem hasn't sorta worked itself out via natural selection or something....

[–]Tryxster 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm pretty sure you mean tortoises. But i suppose turtles can get in the same situation too. Not as often though.

[–]Snatland 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

According to wiki 'turtle' can be used to refer to the order as a whole as well as specifically actual turtles.

And now I'm trying to decide if their flatter shells would make it easier or harder for a sea turtle to right itself.

[–]Tryxster 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

well in the real world, tortoises will get into the situation more often because it spends most of it's life on land whereas turtles spend most of it at sea and so can't find themselves stuck on their back much. In test conditions, the tortoise will probably find it easier to right itself at my guess.

I DO feel like that when floating on my back in the sea. I bend my neck 'up' and watch the horizon (the sea) as the ground. Try it, it's fun!

[–]TitaniumNation 0 points1 point ago

I have a huge fear of looking up into the sky / feeling like I'm going to "fall into the sky". I think that would make me faint.

[–]DoctorMiracles 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I had some problems with mild agoraphobia as a young kid, remember looking out to the open night sky during a ferry trip and the immensity of it put a chill in my back. Spending more time outdoors helped. Now I really love a starry or daytime sky.

Correct me if I am wrong, I have heard they die if they stay in this position for long, is it true please?

[–]shadypizzaguy 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

They will possibly either suffocate from too much pressure on their lungs or experience organ failure if left in that position for too long. But for the most part they are able to flip themselves back over.

Actually tortoises can't flip themselves over and would likely die from starvation :(

You wouldn't think you were flying if you looked down and saw the sky. You would think you were flying if you looked down and saw the earth far below you.

Who says he's not? He's on a rock flying through space, there is no up and down, only what is perceived to be due to gravity.

TIL turtles reverse gravity to raise their self-esteem. Can't say I wouldn't do the same.
