The Soft-Shell Turtle is a unique type of turtle known for its flexible, leathery shell instead of the hard, bony shell found in most turtles. This adaptation allows them to be more streamlined in water, making them efficient swimmers. Soft-shell turtles are primarily found in freshwater habitats like rivers, lakes, and ponds. These turtles are carnivorous and mainly feed on fish, insects, and other small aquatic animals. They have long necks and can extend them quickly to catch prey. Soft-shell turtles belong to the family Trionychidae, which includes several species, each varying in size and color.
