It pains me to post this video. It chronicles a particularly embarrassing moment in the life of this tiny toity here who is doing his damnedest to have sexy-times with a completely uninterested shoe. He was the little turtle who could.
Say that 10 times fast, and then you might begin to understand this little guy's plight. He begins his Sisyphean journey to take a bite out of a cherry tomato, but as soon as he gets to it, it slips from under his little beaklike maw. Finally, a human comes in and holds it still so he can get a little bite.
It's a mashed potato-eatin' toity! I heart him.

This is one of the most ridiculous masterpieces I've seen on the net. But I wouldn't mind toting around a guinea pig phone for a change; I'd take a call from a furball any day. Although Verizon's "Can you tickle me now?"
This Florida psychologist spent ten years training a turtle to perform dog tricks. The turtle can sit, shake, and roll over on command. It's a beautiful thing.
You may have already seen this two-headed turtle. It's been working the talk show circuit and making guest appearances left and right, so to speak. So Letterman got the 411 and somehow this mutant turtle's still cruising solo (minus the extra head) down dating lane.
I love this curmudgeonly little toitie. What other baby animal comes out looking so grumpy and old? You can almost hear him saying, "Harrumph!"
Hard times call for desperate measures pleasures. Unfortunately, this seduction scene didn't pan out as planned...
I didn't realize how territorial turtles are until I saw the video of that little green punk chasing cats off his area of the lawn. Lo and behold, here's another turtle on a mission to get a friend off his turf and he'll stop at nothing to prevail. Have you ever seen a turtle body slam into another turtle?
