A reptile with two lives
The Animals section has broad folders for wildlife, pets and sea creatures. Turtles get their own because the same animal appears in very different settings: marine conservation posters, pet shops selling terrapins, fables about slow and steady winners, and East Asian symbolism where the tortoise stands for long life.
Checking the shell
The shell pattern is what makes a turtle read at a glance — a few clear hexagonal plates work better than a dense realistic texture at icon size. Sea turtles and land tortoises are not interchangeable: flippers mean ocean, stubby clawed legs mean dry land. For photos, look closely at the edge of the shell, where a pale background often lingers.
