What do turtles look like when they leave their shells? I have never seen one. Is it as creepy as a hermit crab?
Joke's on you OP, those are butterflies in your image!
Like this OP.
They are very vulnerable so hardly ever seen by even experienced photographers

A turtle frog? come on, turtles are reptiles and frogs are amphibians, they cant breed.

like you would know, mr. doesn't-know-what-a-turtle-without-shell-looks-like
>>2086262
They can if you get 'em drunk enough trust me I have 5 PHDs
the shells are part of them anon, like most shelled animals. Only some creatures actually switch em up as they grow, and those usually use a shell that was made by another creature.
this might be a troll thread by eh, I'd rather write shit on /an/ than actually work

Never saw a turtle in person, I thought they were like snails and could leave their shells, but I should have known better you see slugs looking for shells all the time and never a naked turtle.

Are those orange balls eggs? Looks like little tangerines.

Slugs and snails are different creatures as well. Snail shells grow with the snail so they never need new ones
>>2087367
Why's everyone saying slug are snails without shells then?
>>2087397
Because they're stupid
>>2087101
The orange balls are follicles, these would have developed into eggs
so yes, these are eggs...kind of
