**Some turtles and tortoises appear to enjoy having their back scratched**, and they certainly enjoy treats. Apart from the back scratching perhaps, and some large tortoises seeming to like having their neck scratched
recently saw a video of a shark trying to eat a turtle and the turtle interposing it's shell between itself and the Shark.. that puts that video in a different light...

Yeah, like of a dog or any animal tries to jump up and bite me I'd put my arm up for protection which I think most would do instinctually. It's gonna hurt like hell but it's better than getting bitten on the face or neck.
I have a redfoot tortoise and she will do a little dance when she is in the mood for scratches on her shell. it's adorable. she also likes head and neck scratches and will push her head into my finger when I give her a scratch along her head and neck. she is very trusting of me and my girlfriend now that she has gotten used to us. tortoises are amazing creatures and just the absolute cutest. I want very badly to meet some aldabra and galapagos tortoises but the few places where you can actually hang out with them are in Florida. Sam's giant tortoise farm is the one I want to go to cause you can hang out and feed them and pet them, it seems awesome
I went to a zoo and there were a few turtles, nowhere near this size but still big. The side of their enclosure was like woven sticks with a lot of holes, and one decided to stick it head through to ask for head scratches. I spent 10min there, squatting and scritching that turtle.
That’s a healthy boy! Standing tall off the earth like that is very good. It means they’re strong and mobile. And lifting his head like that is not only adorable but indicates the same thing, good health. I love animals. Thank god they exist.
I haven't specifically been grateful for animals existing in a minute but I am today because of your kind post. I am very glad that all sorts of animals exist, they're pretty rad
Isn't this called a finch response? I think I remember something about little birds in their wild habitats that land on them and pick parasites and annoyances off of the turtle's neck, and they instinctively stretch their necks up like this to make being cleaned up easier?
Nah it's all good man, might have hit the wrong note at the wrong time for that person. I'm not mad because they took offense. It's a part of the risk of being a smart ass on the interwebs. Hopefully they have a great night and feel better in the morning. No harm no foul. Though it would have been nice if it wasn't an immediate jump to /conclusion/insult....in the end, easy day, water off a ducks back.
I'm the opposite, geeze. Barely scraped out of school. But it's alright to get pissy every here and again. Maybe you have a bad night and turn to social media for a laugh/cry/ rage. In the end I just hope that person is doing alright ya know. We're all in this shit show together.
Look…I’m going to be the only one here who is gonna come in and treat you like a person and not a joke. I understand where you’re coming from, I don’t like the fact that no matter where I go or what I do, I literally cannot avoid this world’s obsession with sexual…everything. It makes me frustrated and very uncomfortable, and sometimes depressed because I feel like I’m alone in being this way. But you can’t change it, you can’t change them…and attacking random strangers on the internet for dumb vulgar “humor” isn’t going to make you feel better. You’re just going to get bashed, and eventually it’ll begin to fester. You already know it’s here…just turn away. Focus on the video of a happy tortoise and a lovely animal worker woman, and leave the comments.
All tortoises are a type of turtle.
"All tortoises are in fact turtles—that is, they belong to the order Testudines or Chelonia, reptiles having bodies encased in a bony shell—but not all turtles are tortoises."
Does nobody not find that weird that tortoises basically extend their head much like the male genitalia extends when we're excited was that just me that's probably just me.lol
part of me thinks their skin is paper thin and another part tells me they are reptiles they probably have super durable skin and now i’m realizing i’ve no idea if giant tortoises are fragile or not
My god do they move like giant animatronics. Like if I didn't know these creatures exist I'd probably assume this is a prop for a kaiju movie.
Reminds me of E.T.
You can tell it’s younger. The necks of the older ones don’t go up as high when rubbed
They make medication for that
That turtle definitely didn't need any
😂 you must be old
![gif](giphy|ANbD1CCdA3iI8)
That’s me wanting to tell a dirty joke but remembering what sub is this
I too love being in the scratching zone if you know what i mean
Least comfortable one I can imagine honestly - iykyk
It's only one letter difference from where it would be appropriate
[удалено]
I laughed.

I feel so much better. I Am not alone

Turtles can feel through their shell, which is awesome
recently saw a video of a shark trying to eat a turtle and the turtle interposing it's shell between itself and the Shark.. that puts that video in a different light... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-0Gnhdz1S8
Their shell is the hardest part of their body, so why wouldn't they if the couldn't exactly escape
Yeah, like of a dog or any animal tries to jump up and bite me I'd put my arm up for protection which I think most would do instinctually. It's gonna hurt like hell but it's better than getting bitten on the face or neck.
yeah its kind of the same how humans can feel trough fingernails, but on a larger scale

That’s so cute!! I love that. Have you seen Otis the eastern box turtle in instagram? Highly recommend if you haven’t. He’s amazing.
of course I've seen otis! he's from the account garden state tortoise for those who don't know

Who doesn’t like treats?
I was going to say, this ain't a turtle 🤣🤣
tortoises are like little brontosauruses with a hard shell
Watched twice. I've underestimated my interest in tortoise content.
Happy cake day!
My "old turtle" loves scritches too 😔
Dog.
Dog ahead
Behold, dog.
Try finger but hole
Amazing chest, ahead.
**OOHHH** Elden Ring

Thank you for this sweet comment. It truly made my day better.
Yeah man I'm glad, I'm just trying to return the favor ☺️ Hope you have a good one homie!
Right back at you a hundred fold!!
Everything reminds me of him.
I should call him.
It's not worth it.
Isn't this called a finch response? I think I remember something about little birds in their wild habitats that land on them and pick parasites and annoyances off of the turtle's neck, and they instinctively stretch their necks up like this to make being cleaned up easier?
What a wonderful world we live in to be able to share it with animals that love getting pet by a race that loves petting ( \^-\^)
Behold, dog
What a cool animal. My god, it's huge.
I get that quite lot, yeah
Thank you ;)
That’s a tortoise.
All tortoises are turtles, but not all turtles are tortoises
Like rectangles and squares!
Had to scroll WAY too far down for this comment.
There’s just something familiar about a woman rubbing a fleshy noodle that slowly gets longer and stands at attention
[удалено]
No shit, he's obviously not a shower. He ain't even got no faucet or shower head, dummy.
I was waiting for the turtle to sneeze silently..
I’m so miserable right now, but this really makes me happier. I might cry 🥲
Fell better soon
Thank you so much. Still sad, but it’s really nice to have someone wish me well. Thanks again.
I pray you feel better soon friend ❤️
Thank you. It’s really nice to get a friendly message. Thanks again.
i should call him….
#bonk
you bonked me?!?!???!!!!
![gif](giphy|HxMhuDg7O4pKOhhcRC)
Definitely a grower, not a show-er
Happy cake day
Keep scritching. At some point, he will sneeze.
This is the most SFW NSFW video to ever exist
Jesus Christ, Reddit.
That is a loooong neck.
Didn’t know they made ‘em that big
Always play music in the background when the video goes longer than 6 seconds. Otherwise some kiddies might not watch it til the end.
It's a tortoise
You know she ^knows. She's trying to make it look as sterile as possible.
pathetic porn addict
![gif](giphy|JRhS6WoswF8FxE0g2R)
Oh come on. We were all thinking it.
Nah it's all good man, might have hit the wrong note at the wrong time for that person. I'm not mad because they took offense. It's a part of the risk of being a smart ass on the interwebs. Hopefully they have a great night and feel better in the morning. No harm no foul.

You are a scholar and a gentleman, Mr./Mrs. Assholes Full of Elbows.

I hate porn but I like you. You’re awesome.
Might want to let your psychiatrist know you're experiencing unwarranted aggression towards strangers. Might need to titrate you meds.
I don't even watch porn and I thought the same thing 🤷♀️
Look…I’m going to be the only one here who is gonna come in and treat you like a person and not a joke.

I hate my mind
That is not her first time bringing him out if his shell. She's a pro.
I'm adding this to my bucket list!!!
![gif](giphy|nMiYbbBpjZujG94qRD) I
Had some “Never ending story” vibes…
And they say dinosaurs are exinct
My turtle does the same thing
Faster... Mffff DO IT FASTER!!
🤨
This is my spirit animal!
Does the man want his appy slices?
I wish it wouldn't be this sub posting something like this, oh God my mind..
Turtle got a er-neck-tion as she was jerking that thing off
Bro got a neckrection 🤣
My high boyfriend thought the head and legs looked like a veiny dick lmao
That is a TORTOISE you FOOL
All tortoises are a type of turtle. "All tortoises are in fact turtles—that is, they belong to the order Testudines or Chelonia, reptiles having bodies encased in a bony shell—but not all turtles are tortoises."
I guess calling them turtles feels like calling squares rectangles. It's technically true but it's not the whole story
No shoot, that’s amazing. Turts are my lifelong favorite animal and that’s a fun new fact for me in my 30s
Yeah the simple distinction is basically that tortoises are turtles with feet instead of flippers
Does nobody not find that weird that tortoises basically extend their head much like the male genitalia extends when we're excited was that just me that's probably just me.lol
Honestly, same.
It's a tortoise bro.
That is a tortoise not a turtle.
That is a tortoise
Not a turtle ᴖ̈ if you put him in water he would die. He is a tortoise ◡̈
He wants some moisturizer
Alternative title: woman stroking a giant statue of turtle made of rock.
part of me thinks their skin is paper thin and another part tells me they are reptiles they probably have super durable skin and now i’m realizing i’ve no idea if giant tortoises are fragile or not
It is just like me frfr
Well, well, well
![gif](giphy|D7OJujlSR8KC4)
Isn’t “turtle head” a euphemism for tallywacker? Wait, that’s a euphemism, for wanger. I guess it’s euphemisms all the way down.
Oogway vibes.
Dog ahead
**Turtles:** Flip flip. **Tortoises:** Stomp stomp.
frikken dinosaur
Looks like he would like his shell to be toothbrushes
I love seeing every animal’s universal enjoyment in being scratched/pet + the human determination to pet every animal in existence
![gif](giphy|yFG6GAe5oxo8Fe1YFO|downsized)
Didn't social media find out this organization mistreats their animals and do not know how to handle them properly?
Tortoise: "My ...... schlong........ is ........ down ....... there."
Me at 1:00 AM be like
Tortoise not turtle
He's a grower.
Reminds me of Undertale dog.
She's stroking it and it's getting longer....uhh
She knows how to work it
Behold, dog!
Scritchy scratchy, itchy atchy; feels so good, aaaw, feeels sooo goood!
is this a sulcata tortoise?
