Turtles butts


Did you Know that some Turtles breathe through their Butts?
According to WikiAnswers the Fitzroy River turtle (Rheodytes leukops)
found in Queensland shares the ability with dragonfly nymphs,
sea cucumbers, and the odd other Australian!!!

That is fascinating Mark! What an interesting fact. I have also heard of a breed of Brits who talk out of their butts!

Hi Carolyn, I'm always reading useless trivia, I do enjoy it though.
