1. That they have no individual personalities. Such a lie. My grandfather had two box turtles named Tommy and Matthew, who came to live with us after he died, and they had very distinct personalities. Also: You can totes tell when a turtle is being petulant and when zie is being a clown. TRUE FACTS.
2. That they are slow. Hell no. Not when they want something. Like a blue truck, for instance.
Video Description: A turtle chases a remote-controlled blue truck across a hard floor floor in a residence, its wee legs moving quickly to catch up. It is very cute.
