Speaker 2 (00:03):
I follow a site called David Attenborough Fans and it's
not from David Attenborough, but it's animal facts and interesting things,
and it's a picture of close up picture and I
was really confused by it. Someone's holding a turtle in
their hand like a little pet. Turtles the size of
a lunchbox, and the shell is all malformed. It looks
like a mushroom. Almost in the center of that is
(00:25):
a block of color. And what it says here is
never paint a turtle's shell. Painting a turtle shell isn't harmless.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
And this is kids do this stuff.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Pet turtle, You paint the shell and all that kind
of thing. It's a silent form of cruelty. The shell
is alive, full of nerves and blood vessels through it.
It breathes, regulates its temperature and senses. Covering it with
paint blocks its ability to absorb sunlight, essential for its
metabolism and bone development. It also prevents it from naturally
eliminating bacteria and fungi. Many die slowly from infections or poisoning.
(01:01):
It's not art, it's suffering. And so that picture is
the turtle's malformed shell because it's been painted and the
painters sort of squished down into the middle and it's
a horrific photo.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
But that is a thing where kids painting. Yeah, don't
do it. Did you have a pet turtle?
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Yeah, we had a pet turtle, but we brought it
back from Melbourne to Sydney and the plane on a plane,
we're smuggling reptiles, that's what we're doing.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
I actually have a.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Little seat belt and it looks like the thing from
that soap commercial, simon, have you.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
Got teenage mouton ninja turtles? I'd like to watch that.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
What was it in in your luggage?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
In a box on your lap, the shoe back box
on my lap?
Speaker 2 (01:41):
And what did the flight of tenant think was in it?
If I was cute, they knew it was. He got
out to the plane, Yeah, got out.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
It's the slowest moving creature I know.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
And then someone said there's a turtle on this planet
and this is me.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
I would have been about ten.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
I said, oh bt, someone else's got a turtle because
it was on the box under my seat. Because Dad said,
be a bit disgraded that it may go waving the
thing around.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
And so luckily Samuel l. Jackson wasn't on that plane.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Turtles on a play?
Speaker 1 (02:06):
How long do you this is? And this is another
thing like Hamster's turtles. Do they as pets? Do they
ever die of old age? You never hear of them dying? No,
it ran away? How long did that take? How long?
How does a turtle run?
Speaker 3 (02:20):
A lady HD I just said, of what do the
turtles going?
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (02:23):
Will you move on?
Speaker 1 (02:24):
It's probably still not at the gate. It's probably still
in the yard. Should drive past Bold House. It's it's
still there. There he is Herbie. Wow.
