Tortoise is an animal with high ornamental and medicinal value. We often say that tortoise has the longest life among all animals and has a reputation of 10000 years. As a common kind of tortoise, many Brazilian turtles like to raise, but how many people know how long this kind of tortoise lives? Xiaobian will take you to understand the secret of Brazilian tortoise life.
The Brazilian turtle was first imported from the United States. It is a kind of omnivorous water turtle among turtles. I believe that many people who raise turtles want to know where the life of their Brazilian turtles is. There is a saying that turtles live a long life, but in fact, it is not the case. No matter how long they live, they will lead to a long life for various reasons.
In fact, the life span of turtles is actually limited to a certain extent. It is not that they can live for ten thousand years. Compared with other turtles, the life span of Brazilian turtles is a little shorter, because water turtles usually have a shorter life span than land turtles, and according to various data, the life span of Brazilian turtles is shorter among turtles, but it will also be extended or shortened due to the breeding environment and one of their own turtles.
The average life span of Brazilian turtles without disease and living environment impact is about 25 years. After investigation, the oldest Brazilian turtle can live to 35 years old, but it will not exceed the limited life span of 40 years.
So how can you tell the age of the Brazilian turtle you raise? It can be inferred from the concentric lines on the turtle’s back. Usually, a circle represents a cycle year, that is, a circle represents a year, and then count the number of circles. In addition, the year when the Brazilian turtle was born is the current age of the Brazilian turtle. Then, according to the limit of a life span of the Brazilian turtle, you can infer the life span of your Brazilian turtle. However, this calculation method is only suitable for turtles with clear lines on the back of the turtle and not heated and kept for a long time. It is more accurate.
In addition, it can also be calculated by weighing and looking at the markings on the abdomen of Brazilian turtles.
