You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?

If reptiles hibernate when they’re too cold, but what becomes of them when they’re too hot?

I thought it was because she didn’t have a “shell” of clothes, but the laying on the back thing makes more sense…

Not only is she lying on her back, but she is clearly open to attack by gulls and crabs.

Unless someone comes along and rolls her, she’ll be there when the tide comes in.

You flip a turtle on it’s back and it will die eventually because it can’t right itself.
