Why I Chose Turtles

I chose to do my report on turtles because they are my favorite animal in the whole world. I think everyone should have a favorite animal and learn more about them. And see if there is anything they can do to help them. Turtles are unique each one is different in its own way. Kind of like people. They are amazing and I love them.

THE END!!!! :D
