Did you know...


The fastest reptile in the world is a turtle!? 




Even though, turtles are slow onland in water, they are fast.
It's said that the Pacific leather-back sea turtle can swim at speeds up to 22 miles per hour!


The fastest reptile on land is the spiny-tailed iguana from Costa Rica.
They can travel at speeds of up to 21 miles per hour.
