When a turtle is frightened, it will retract its head and limbs into its shell and will not extend its head and limbs for a long time. Some turtles will become anxious after being frightened, and may refuse to eat, have diarrhea, etc. In severe cases, they may become frightened and become incontinent.

What to do when a turtle is frightened

1. If a turtle is frightened, it is best not to disturb it and let it stay quietly until it calms down after a while. That's it.

2. Provide a safe and quiet living environment for the turtle, and disturb it as little as possible.
