International Turtle Day 2021: Memes, Pics And Appreciation

Yes, even though turtles are one of the slowest animals ever, they are also the coolest animal ever that finds its way right into our souls. They live basically forever, they have the coolest spine, they're brave against other animals, they have actually won many races against rabbits - not because they're faster but because rabbits have no attention span.

We love turtles, turtles are so cool, and today, on this year's international turtle day, we are gonna celebrate turtles in the best way that we know how - through some hilarious turtle memes, cool and adorable turtle pics, and just some general turtle appreciation over how cool they are.

This may be one of the coolest things that we have ever seen. Yeah, we knew that turtles hibernate, and we knew that they live underwater, but to be able to capture this photo... that's magical. It's like getting to see one of nature's hidden secrets, getting a glimpse into the beauty of the wild.

We love seeing people do good things for any animal, but there's something even more special about people helping turtles. Turtles are not the first animal that you think of when you think of rescues. Most people probably wouldn't rush to do this for these creatures, but these amazing people did, and we are thankful.
