How do turtles distinguish between male and female, and how can turtles tell if they are male and fe

<> snapping turtle The snapping turtle is one of the most ferocious turtles, a carnivore, the oldest living reptile and one of the largest freshwater turtles in the world.

1. It is known as the king of freshwater animals.

Note that alligator turtles are male and female, and snapping turtles of different sexes are different. In order to correctly distinguish between male and female crocodile turtles, you also need to master certain methods and skills.

It has been found that there are several differences between female and male alligator turtles, and we can accurately distinguish between male and female snapping turtles based on these different points:

1.Let's take a look at the location of the excretory hole of the snapping turtle, the position of the male snapping turtle is closer to the tail end, while the position of the female snapping turtle is close to the ventral carapace.

2.If you look at the shape of the snapping turtle's excretory holes, the holes of the male turtle are elongated, and the holes of the female turtle are rounded.

3.Looking at the tail of the alligator turtle, the tail of the male alligator turtle is thicker, while the tail of the female alligator turtle is shorter and thinner.

4.Let's take a look at the ventral carapace of an alligator turtle. Male alligator turtles have a pronounced depression in this area, while female snapping turtles appear flatter and distinctly different from male turtles.

The judgment of male and female turtles on the tail of a turtle is based on the length of its tail (long for males and short for females), and this method depends on the location of the cloaca of the turtle. Newborn baby turtles are not easy to distinguish with the naked eye, and this method is second only to turtles over 5-6cm!

Females and males weigh less than 100 grams, and it is more difficult to distinguish genders.

When the male weighs about 150 grams, the head, neck, limbs, tail, dorsal carapace, and abdominal carapace gradually turn black, the older the turtle, the deeper the black, and finally the eyes also become black, the male turtle body is small, the weight is generally about 300 grams, and the tail is thick and long; The head, neck, and limbs of the female are grayish-green, with yellow-green inlaid stripes on the eyes and neck, brown dorsal carapace, yellow stripes between each shield (some individuals do not), brown ventral carapace, large black spots, and short tail.

The convenient way for the male and female turtles should be to see the distance between the cloaca and the nail, the one close to the number of cavities in the first town should be the female, and the one who is far away from the first should be the male, and there are relevant comparison charts on this Internet.

The bottom plate is flat, the female turtle is concave, and the male turtle is concave. The female turtle with a short tail is the female turtle, and the male turtle with a long tail is famous. When the male turtle matures, the whole body turns black, and the female turtle is still tan.

The male turtle's ventral carapace is concave, just enough to jam the protruding dorsal shell of the female turtle, and the female turtle's ventral carapace is short and flat. Turn the turtle over and touch the amplitude of the abdominal carapace with your fingers to tell the difference between male and female. Female Turtle:

The dorsal carapace is short and wide, the ventral carapace is flat, there is no depression, the tail is thin and short, the base of the tail is thin, the cloacal foramen is close to the posterior edge of the ventral carapace, and the notch formed by the two anal shields of the ventral carapace is shallow, and the notch angle is larger. Male tortoise: the dorsal carapace is long and narrow, the ventral carapace ** is slightly inward, the tail is thick and long, the base of the tail of the good source group is thick, the cloaca hole is far away from the orange margin of the posterior friend of the ventral carapace, and the notch formed by the two anal shields of the ventral carapace is deeper, and the notch angle is smaller.

One: Looking at the abdomen of the turtle, the male turtle has obvious depressions, and the female turtle is flat. Two:

Lying on top of the twitching male. It is the mother who is happy below.

This is easy, and the person who bought the turtle knows that it seems to be based on the turtle shell.
