This Creature Uses a Drawbridge to Stay Safe! 🤯Let’s talk about the remarkable hinge on the bottom shell of a box turtle. Observe how the slightest touch causes the turtle to close up and seal itself shut, an adaptation that has evolved over many years to help the turtle evade predators. When we carefully examine the hinge on the bottom of the shell and how it acts as a drawbridge, we can see how it allows the turtle to completely shut itself when spooked. This differs from other turtle species

Look what I found on the trail — an Eastern Box Turtle! 🐢🍂 These amazing turtles can completely close their shells like a box when they’re scared — it’s how they got their name!
