*** About Tortoises: These land-dwelling reptiles are known for their distinctive shell and remarkably slow movement. Tortoises are generally herbivorous and can live to a very old age, some even surpassing 150 years. Their shells, made up of around 60 different bones covered by plates called scutes, are actually part of their skeleton and offer protection from predators—a crucial adaptation for their slow-paced lifestyle. Throughout history, tortoises have symbolized wisdom and longevity, aspects creatively captured in this imaginative depiction.
