NOT including terrapins or turtles that live in any sweetwater/saltwater
I’ll just go buy one of thoseI'm pretty sure red footed tortoises can swim a little bit. I might need some confirmation on that.
And buy 3 of thoseAh. That would be the giant swimming tortoise of the Bahamas.

Can I ask why you’re looking for a swimming tortoise? Just get a turtle?And buy 3 of those
FYI Ornate and western box turtles don’t have webbed feet and swim minimally. They’re considered terrestrial turtles.I reckon box turtles would be a good midway!
At least they’re buoyan.Not the best swimmer but he can get from point A to B
Apparently this Russian can swim! I always thought they would just sink.
I remember seeing an academic paper about an aldabra that made an ocean journey to another island somewhereI’m pretty sure Aldabras can swim pretty well, and I’m almost certain one was found floating around in the ocean a while ago. I could be wrong, though
Let me test it out.Can we agree that tortoises just ain’t really built to swim and we should probably not dunk our tortoises in ponds or baths to prove this point? ?
By this logic newborn babies can swim.
What you do with your kids is up to you ?Let me test it out.
Yes, it’s up to me....What you do with your kids is up to you ?
