Turtles move in different ways depending on where they live. Land turtles walk slowly on their sturdy legs. They have elephant-like feet with claws that help them walk on rough ground. Water turtles have flippers or webbed feet that work like paddles. These help them swim quickly in water. Some turtles can live both on land and in water. These turtles have feet that work well for walking and swimming.
All turtles can pull their legs into their shell when they rest or feel scared.
