    Yes. Turtles are ectotherms, and their bodily functions change with the temperature of their environment. When the temperature rises, the turtle's functions are active, while when the temperature decreases, it will be the opposite process, and the functions will decline.

    The body temperature of the turtle will change with the change of air temperature and water temperature, and when the weather gets colder, their body temperature will drop to a certain level, and at that time, the turtle will not have the energy to carry out activities, and the physiological rhythm will slow down, or even do not eat or move, and enter a dormant state, which is called "hibernation". Normally, when the temperature drops to around 10-8 degrees, the turtle goes into hibernation.

    For most tortoises that need to hibernate, 0 to 35 degrees is the temperature range in which they can survive. In this temperature range, the activity of the turtle is positively correlated with the change of temperature, and the activity increases with the increase of temperature.

    28-30 is the most ideal living temperature for turtles, all body functions are at their best, they love to eat, they are very active, and they can recover quickly from various injuries and illnesses.

    The ideal temperature for hibernation in turtles is between 1-10. Higher than 10 is likely to cause the turtle to wake up, thereby consuming physical strength, resulting in a decline in the turtle's physique, which is not conducive to the growth and reproduction of the turtle in the coming year. Repeated hibernation and awakening during a hibernation period can also cause the death of the turtle.

    Temperatures below 0 will frostbite the tortoise or even freeze it to death.

    Apart from mammals and birds, other animals are ectotherms. Mammals and birds can regulate their body temperature independently, but other animals do not have the ability to regulate their body temperature independently, and there is actually no such regulatory mechanism.

    When the external ambient temperature rises, the body temperature of ectotherms animals also rises gradually, and the metabolism also increases.

    When the ambient temperature of the outside world decreases, so does their body temperature, and with it, their metabolism. Common ones such as fish, frogs, turtles, snakes, lizards, crocodiles, etc. are all common ectotherms.

    Of course, you can, and the temperature of the turtle land is still relatively sensitive, especially the water turtle. The most suitable growth temperature for turtles is 25-28 degrees, above 20 degrees will open their mouths to eat, below 20 degrees show refusal to eat, below 15 degrees into light hibernation, below 10 degrees will hibernat.

    I could feel it back then.

    Turtles that can usually adapt to hibernation can survive in a temperature range of 0-45, but this does not mean that they will survive well in extreme temperatures. The optimum temperature is generally 25-28, including many tropical turtles.

    Yes, otherwise how would it be said that the turtle should hibernate. All animals will have a sense of warmth and cold. Because their bodies are all made up of flesh, snow, nerves, etc., just like people.

    The difference is that the sensitivity to heat and cold may vary. Some animals rely on their fur to keep out the cold.

    Turtles can feel the temperature. The most suitable temperature for turtles is around 25 degrees Celsius, when the temperature is higher than 30 degrees Celsius, the water intake will increase and they will like to soak in the water, and for temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius, the turtle will go into hibernation.

    When things are like this, the turtle is quite sensitive to temperature, because the cover is fast, and the temperature is felt by most animals, so that the protection measures can be automatically activated.

    So, turtles are even more sensitive to temperature changes!

    Turtles are cold-blooded animals. They do not have a constant body temperature, and their body temperature is greatly limited by the environment. Cold-blooded animals are very sensitive to temperature changes, and their nerves to feel temperature are more developed.

    Definitely, otherwise he wouldn't hibernate, that is, when some turtles are raised, he won't eat or drink in winter, but after Zen learned about it, he suggested that you turn up the room temperature a little higher, so that he can feel warm, and he will wake up.

    Take the grass turtle as an example, and other water turtles can also be seen. The survival temperature range of grass turtles is roughly 0-35, and because water turtles such as grass turtles are extremely resistant to stress, the survival rate beyond this temperature range is still high in a short period of time, but as a summary of the experience of conventional breeding, we do not consider these extremes and individual differences. Therefore, 0-35 is a safe value with universal applicability.

    In this temperature range, there is a direct positive correlation between the activity of the turtle's physiological activity and the temperature.

    The temperature range of the hibernation period is 0-15, and in this temperature range, the hibernation of grass turtles has a high safety, and 5-10 is the most suitable. If the temperature is too high during the hibernation period, the turtle's energy consumption will be too large, the turtle will be easily emaciated, the immunity is also weak, and the chance of infection with pathogens is also higher. Conversely, if the temperature of hibernation is too low, the burden on the internal organs will also increase, which will also be detrimental to the hibernation of turtles.

    During the active period, the temperature range is 18-32, during which the grass turtle can feed, grow, mate and reproduce normally. Among them, 18-24 is the low activity period, in such a temperature range, the turtle has weak activity, low food intake, and weak resistance. This temperature period is the common temperature in spring and autumn, and it is also the time when various turtle diseases are high.

    As an important period in conventional feeding, the feeding method of this period and temperature period should be to rest and eat less, and the water level should be shallow.

    24-32 is the period of high activity, of which 29 is the optimal temperature. In this temperature range, the turtle body is in the best physiological active state, with rapid activity, large increase in food intake, extremely high immunity and recovery, and rapid growth. And this temperature period corresponds to the first season of turtle raising - summer.

    During this period, the main point of feeding is to fatten properly and maintain water quality.

    If the tortoise species is a semi-turtle or a tortoise, it needs to sleep in the water, but not if it is a tortoise. If the tortoise is hibernating, it needs to be done in the water, otherwise it will dry out. Turtles are easily woken up when they enter a light sleep, so it is recommended that keepers put them to sleep in water so as not to affect the quality of sleep.

    If the turtle species is a water turtle or a semi-water turtle, such as a flower turtle or a grass turtle, it needs to sleep in the water. In addition to sleeping, eating, etc., all need to be in water. And for tortoises such as sulcata tortoises, leopard tortoises, etc., there is no need to sleep in the water.

    If the turtle is in hibernation, it needs to be carried out in the water, because the hibernation will last for 3 to 4 months, and if the turtle does not touch the water, it will die of dehydration. Therefore, if the turtle hibernates on the shore, the keeper needs to water it once a week.

    In addition, turtles are easily frightened when sleeping on the shore, and turtles that sleep lightly can easily wake up, thus affecting sleep. Therefore, in order to ensure the quality of the turtle's sleep, it is recommended that the keeper put the turtle into the water to sleep.

Turtles belong to cold-blooded animals, the temperature directly affects the survival of turtles, when the temperature is lower than 13 degrees, then the turtles will enter a state of hibernation, when the temperature rises to break through 15, turtles begin to wake up for activity foraging. If the temperature is too low, then the turtle has stopped moving, reducing metabolism, conserving energy, preserving its own nutrition, if it does not enter hibernation, the turtle is relatively thin and does not get a certain amount of nutritional supplements, then it is difficult to get through this stage of hibernation. There are many cold-blooded animals that do not have enough energy to survive hibernation, and will naturally die on the way to hibernation, so the impact of temperature on turtles is very large, and there are many small turtles that do not actually have the ability to survive hibernation. >>>More
