Anda ingat anda tau sumer pasal kekura?

Turtle lovers unite~!! x3 Mythunderstandings yang selalu dikaitkan dengan kekura! Sumber fakta kat sini.

You can spread special slime on a young turtle and get a Ninja turtle

There are no Ninja turtles, but many young humans are convinced that the turtle they catch in the yard, win at a fair, or buy at a pet store can in time be made into a Ninja. The Ninja Turtle craze has had a devastating impact on the world's water turtle population as millions of kids demanded their very own Raphael, Leonardo, Donatello, and Michelangelo, and parents who knew nothing about proper turtle care indulged them. Note: no turtle has ever survived on a pizza diet or in the sewer!

Turtles and tortoises just need a leaf of lettuce a day

A lettuce leaf, even lots of lettuce leafs, will starve a turtle or tortoise. Depending on the species, turtles and tortoises eat a wide variety of vegetables, fruits, leafy greens, even hays and grasses. Some water turtles eat invertebrates, fish, and crustaceans; some sea turtles enjoy a meal of jelly fish, seaweed, mollusks, eel grass, and other sea plants and invertebrates. Some tortoises and box turtles enjoy such tasty morsels as snails, slugs and worms.

It's okay to carve your name or other information into a turtle or tortoise shell

Humans can decide for themselves to get tattooed or pierced; turtles and tortoises don't have that choice. Their shells are made of living tissue - bone, skin, blood and nerves - and when you cut into them, it hurts. Cut into the shell and create an opening into the body cavity, and the turtle or tortoise may well die of infection. Since their shells are living tissue, they also should never be painted.

It's okay to poke a hole in a tortoise's shell and chain it so it won't escape from your yard or keep digging holes

It is not okay to do this...tortoises will keep straining and digging, some literally turning their feet into bloody stumps as they keep digging away at the concrete patio or hard earth, trying to do what comes naturally: burrow for protection from the sun and to nap. Chaining them can cause shell fractures, which, left untreated, can cause injury and death. Chaining and preventing them from digging may also cause such stress that they may sicken and die.

Lagi satu... walaupun kekura hidup dua alam, kekura bukan bapuk haha... okey okey... serius sket... kekura bukan amfibia! Kekura adalah haiwan spesies reptilia dari Order Testudines [group Chelonia].

Bak kata Verne berulangkali dalam citer Over the Hedge, "I'm not an amphibian. I'm a reptile..." Haha xD
