from $27.00

This comfortable soft-style T-shirt features the incredible Spot-legged wood turtle, also known as the painted wood turtle. The full body of the turtle is depicted on the front and the underside of the shell and its egg are included on the back. This beautiful creature can be found in Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago and Venezuela. The wood turtle is omnivorous and is capable of eating on land or in water. On an average day, a wood turtle will move 108 meters (354 ft), a decidedly long distance for a turtle. Interestingly, this species is oviparous, meaning they produce offspring by laying eggs only and do not provide parental care outside of nest-building. For this reason, the location and quality of nesting sites determine the offspring's survival and fitness, so females invest significant time and energy into nest site selection and construction including selecting the area for their nest based on soil temperature (preferring warmer temperatures). Sadly, wood turtle numbers are in decline. Human activity has resulted in their death from habitat destruction, farming accidents, road traffic as well as collecting them illegally for the international pet trade. They are currently endangered. This unisex soft-style t-shirt comfortable and casual. It is made from very soft materials and is 100% cotton for solid colors and includes polyester for Heather colors. .: 100% ring-spun cotton (fiber content may vary for different colors) .: Light fabric (4.5 oz/yd² (153 g/m²)) .: Eurofit .: Tear-away label .: Runs true to size
