    Ban turtle (3), Yunguan (5), Zhou (less than 20), Baise (less than 50), turtle (less than 300), Jintou (functionally extinct), Sanlian (functionally extinct), Pan (functionally extinct).

    The main danger to the survival of China's native turtles is the first point of danger: human capture. Now there are more and more domestic turtle lovers, and many wild turtle species are caught in the pet market.

    The second point is that the habitat is destroyed and polluted. The third point:

    It's invasive species. Some competitive turtle species from abroad have been introduced into China.

    In the next 10 or 20 years, there may be only one type of turtle left in our rivers – the brightly colored Brazilian turtle with a red stripe on the side of its head, while the old-fashioned native turtle will be completely extinct. Shi Haitao, vice chairman of the Professional Committee of the Amphibian and Reptile Branch of the Chinese Zoological Society, said yesterday that the random release of Brazilian turtles is to create "ecological killers", and the state has carried out special research on the harmfulness of Brazilian turtles.

    Answer: There are three types of turtles: water turtles, tortoises, and semi-aquatic turtles. First of all, common turtle species include the Brazilian red-eared turtle, which is fierce and aggressive, and the grass turtle, which is easy to raise. Secondly, terrapids are usually carnivorous, and occasionally eat some plants such as vegetables and aquatic plants.

    In addition, most tortoises are mainly vegetarian, such as kohlrabi, carrots, etc., and can also be fed with watermelon and other fruits.
