LONG NECK
Their long neck allows them to find food in places that their bodies cannot fit into. Due to the length of their necks, they cannot pull their head into their shells.

WEBBED FEETThe turtle has webbed feet for swimming in its swampy habitat. They are useful for catching the turtles’ diet of aquatic animals.
