How long does the Honduran woodgrain turtle live?

2020-12-04 / 951 Read

The Honduran woodgrain turtle lives about 50 years. The lifespan of the Honduran woodgrain turtle has a lot to do with the feeding environment. Generally, the lifespan of the Honduran woodgrain turtle will be less than that of the turtle in the natural environment. The reason why the Honduran woodgrain turtle has such a long lifespan is actually because the turtle's body metabolism is relatively slow. And the Honduran woodgrain turtle itself can adjust the speed of its own metabolism, thus entering a state of suspended animation.

How

I want the Honduran woodgrain turtle to live for a long time. When the turtle is tattooed, it is necessary to build a pool for it, because its size is large and needs enough space for movement. In summer, build a shed to block the strong sunlight. In winter, it needs to hibernate, and the soil in the pool needs to be loosened as much as possible, which is beneficial for it to dig burrows for hibernation.
