Turtles are reptiles that are protected by two large shells which cover most of their body and into which most turtles are able to recoil for protection from predators or the elements. Turtles have a beak with no teeth. Like many reptiles they have a Jacobson's organ which is used to sense tiny chemical particles and food. Their eyesight is good both above and below the water.
