The turtle is a reptile protected by a remarkably sturdy shell, which it uses as a safe refuge from threats and predators. Shown here in full size with rich green tones, its shell reveals a clearly segmented structure.
Turtles are charming animals that swim effortlessly and also roam on land. They're famously slow creatures, so the turtle often appears in conversation as a lighthearted metaphor when someone takes too long to do something. In that way the turtle resembles the sloth.
