    The hazards of Brazilian tortoises to humans are as follows:

    1. The harm of the Brazilian turtle is mainly concentrated in the wild, and this animal must not be released casually, this animal is very fierce in the wild.

    2. It is very harmful to some fish and aquatic animals native to China, which will cause the butterfly effect and even cause the imbalance of the entire ecology.

    3. Therefore, we must not release this animal at will, and at the same time, we must carefully screen whether the released animals are suitable for the ecological environment of China, and whether it will cause certain pressure on the ecology.

    1. Is the Brazilian turtle high IQ:

    The Brazilian turtle has a good IQ, and the full name of the Brazilian turtle is the Brazilian red-eared turtle, which is an aquatic turtle species. Because of the two thick red stripes on both sides of the back of the head, it is also called the red-eared turtle.

    Native to the central United States and northern Mexico, the Brazilian tortoise** is the most common reptile pet species in the world because it is inexpensive and easy to raise, making it a large number of people to breed and sell. The Brazilian tortoise is also the most common type of pet turtle, and it has been discovered that the Brazilian tortoise has a good IQ in the process of feeding it.

    2. How long can a Brazilian tortoise live:

    After 23 years of research, it was found that more than 10,000 turtles can live for more than 25 years, and the life span of turtles can be longer under breeding conditions. We found out from the Internet that the longer living Brazilian turtles can live up to 35 years.

    Therefore, the Brazilian tortoise is not too harmful to humans. Although the turtle is almost considered to be both mute and deaf at times, it can recognize people. For farmers, it is necessary to pay attention to the most basic one is not to release them in the wild, reservoir areas and other places at will.

    At present, no natural predators have been found, and once they enter the ecosystem, they will erode local ecological resources and threaten the survival of similar species.

    Brazilian tortoiseIf you die, you can infect other turtles.

    Because there must be a virus in the water after another Brazilian turtle dies, it is recommended to dispose of the dead Brazilian turtle immediately if found, and change the water and add a little special disinfectant in the turtle pond. Also, it is best not to exceed the depth of the turtle's body in the water to allow the turtle to crawl and breathe.

    Symptoms of the Brazilian tortoise before it died

    1. Refuse food. The Brazilian turtle will refuse food before death, no matter what it feeds, it will not eat, its stomach and intestines will gradually weaken, unable to digest food, this is a symptom of the Brazilian turtle is about to die of old age, can not be artificially changed, but still need to be fed as much as possible.

    2. Neck elongation. If the neck of the Brazilian turtle is elongated, but its legs and feet are very short, and the movement is very slow, the Brazilian turtle will show weakness and spend most of the time sleeping, which is a normal phenomenon of imminent death.

    No. Apply salt or potassium permanganate crystal powder directly to the affected area, but there will be a permanent scar on the tortoiseshell.

    As the carapace is damaged or crushed, germs invade the tortoiseshell and cause the carapace to ulcerate. The dorsal or ventral carapace of the turtle initially appears with white spots, which slowly form red spots, and blood oozes out when pressed hard, and has a rancid smell. In severe cases, the surface of the carapace will ulcerate into holes, and the armpits and crotch will bulge.

    Sick turtles stop eating and move less, and there is a phenomenon of head shrinkage. Four-eyed turtles, side-necked turtles, and snake-necked turtles are highly susceptible to this disease. Sick turtles do not like to eat food and rarely move.

    Not necessarily, depending on how it is caused, if it is caused by bacteria, it will be infectious, and if it is caused by itself, it will be fine.

    The main ones are germs that can be carried by Brazilian tortoises, such as Salmonella.

    The Brazilian red-eared turtle is also a major culprit in the spread of Salmonella. About 85% of farmed turtles carry Salmonella paratyphi, especially young turtles. The bacterium has been shown to be self-ectothermic to homeothermic animals and is infected by millions of people in the United States each year, with 14% of cases being transmitted by turtles.

    The largest amount of young turtles carried, this germ is very harmful to pregnant women, infants and young children, of course, adult Brazilian turtles will also carry salmon is germs, but the number is less than that of young turtles, therefore, friends who have Brazilian turtles at home should pay attention, try to avoid contact between pregnant women and infants and turtles, after contact with Brazilian turtles, wash your hands in time, do not take food immediately.

    The dangers of the eco-killer Brazilian tortoise:

    1. It may lead to the extinction of native turtles

    It has been listed as one of the 100 most threatened alien species in the world published by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, and its diet is mixed, its habitat is diverse, and it has strong reproduction, competition and tolerance. It is extremely competitive in the wild environment, encroaching on the habitat of native species, leading to the endangerment or extinction of native turtles and turtles, destroying local food webs, resulting in species homogenization, and greatly endangering the natural ecological balance.

    Second, it causes the loss of native turtle genes

    Due to the ability of the Brazilian turtle to cross with other native freshwater turtles, resulting in the genetic loss of native freshwater turtles, but also greatly affecting the genetic diversity of native freshwater turtles, due to release and other factors, Brazilian turtles often occupy an absolute advantage in a certain water area, which increases the possibility of crossbreeding between Brazilian turtles and native freshwater turtles.

    In the long run, the genes of native turtles will no longer be pure, and it may slowly lead to extinction, resulting in a homogeneous species.

    Harm of Brazilian turtles to humans: Brazilian turtles carry more Salmonella bacteria, and if people with poor physical fitness do not wash their hands frequently after contact, it may cause Salmonella infection.

    Impact of Brazilian tortoise on ecology: Brazilian tortoise habitat is highly competitive, reproductive, and tolerant, and can quickly encroach on local turtle habitats and compete for food, while due to the presence of natural predators, Brazilian tortoises can reproduce rapidly, and ultimately destroy the local ecological balance.

    1. The harm of Brazilian turtles to the human body.

    1. When the Brazilian turtle is kept as a pet, the biggest harm to the human body is the Salmonella bacteria carried on its body. It is understood that Brazilian turtles are the main culprits in the transmission of Salmonella, and 85% of Salmonella are carried in their bodies, especially young turtles, which carry more Salmonella, and these germs have been proven to be transmitted to humans and cause related diseases.

    2. Although there are more salmonella bacteria on the body of the Brazilian turtle, it generally only infects the elderly, pregnant women and children who have relatively poor physical fitness after contacting the Brazilian turtle and does not wash their hands frequently, and it will not cause death.

    3. When raising Brazilian tortoises, you don't need to worry too much about the harm caused by germs, you only need to wash your hands frequently after touching Brazilian tortoises.

    2. The ecological impact of the Brazilian tortoise.

    1. The Brazilian turtle has been listed as one of the 100 most threatened alien species in the world announced by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, with mixed feeding habits, diverse habitats, strong reproduction, competition and tolerance, female turtles lay 2-3 batches of eggs per year, and each batch lays 10-20 eggs.

    2. It is understood that the Brazilian turtle has a strong competitiveness in the wild environment, and can quickly encroach on the habitat of local turtles, and compete with local turtles for food, and at the same time, because the local turtles can rarely compete for the Brazilian turtle, and there are no natural enemies, resulting in the rapid reproduction of the Brazilian turtle, and ultimately destroy the local natural ecological balance.

    3. Brazilian turtles can be cross-bred with other local freshwater turtles, which leads to the loss of genes of local freshwater turtles, affecting the genetic diversity of local freshwater turtles, and over time, the genes of local freshwater turtles are no longer pure.
