well a...
Turtle = Flippers, and lives and swims in the sea
Tortise = Lives on land and has feet (or atleast not flippers)

I like turtles more. A turtle is way better than a tortoise.

I like Turtles better, something tells me that they are more better and cuter than a Tortoise. And, now I understand the difference... And it's better to be in a cool, refreshing...and salty sea rather than hot dry land!

Well I can now see that turtle's are better because nobody likes tortises.

well tortoises generally are more land dwelling than water dwelling, and turtles take more to the water than anything else.

i always thought tortises were the giant turtle knock-offs and turtles could have flippers or feet, depending on the location. but i have to say turtles because i kinda look like one because of my upper lip (hence the user name turtelman1234)
