Do y'all know about whether amphibians hibernate or not?
« Reply #-1 on: June 11, 2014, 07:48:07 PM »
I was wondering if amphibians such as Turtles hibernate or not.  The reason I'm asking there once was a Turtle in Hawaii that seems to have disappeared and I was wondering if he was hibernating, migrating, or doing some other -ing. 
Any light y'all can shed on this dilemma would really allow me to sleep better at night....as well as the daytime.

Dee, I believe I read a couple weeks ago that he was going off to some exotic places and would
return in a few weeks.

The last picture I remember was of him with two women on his arm.  I figure he is still recovering.

I don't know whether or not amphibians hibernate or not, but turtles certainly do.

BTW, are any of you turtles?

DON'T PAY THE RANSOM! I ESCAPED! Got home last night after a great trip.

For the record, turtles are reptiles, not amphibians (although there are amphibious turtles - go figger). I'd post photos showing the difference but dee probably can't see any pictures he doesn't post himself.

Big Dawg - Not the same turtle but "you bet your ass I am." (Sorry, moderators, but that's the required response).

Did not mean to (potentially) cause anyone to cross a line with the Mods.
