About it
A souvenir sea turtle, captured from photos and drawn with splats. Sea turtles have flippers instead of feet and cannot pull their heads into their shells. Mother turtles come back to the beach where they hatched to lay their eggs, sometimes after decades at sea.
Tap it and the turtle crawls a little way forward, swaying, and back. Drag to circle it and look at the shell plates and the flippers.
