'Totally Surprising and Rather Horrifying': Giant Tortoises Eat Baby Birds
It may be time to retire the phrase “gentle giant.” Researchers in the Seychelles have filmed a giant tortoise hunting and devouring a tern chick in a single gulp. The scientists involved in the discovery say it is the first time such an act has been caught on camera. Even they are shaken up...
So, since researchers assume that 200 year old turtoises aka giant turtles are herbivores they only eat plants and leaves, the giant turtoises are going around eating stranded baby birds.
Stupid researchers. What did they think was gonna happen when that did occur? They are reptiles. Sometmes reptiles like 200 year old giant turtoises/turtles are able to munch on helples baby birds or other animals near by.
They think the 200 year old turtoises were gonna have the baby birds play turtle game with them or something?
