The word "Turtle" usually refers to turtle in Chinese, also known as turtle. Here, I will compare and contrast the differences between turtles and turtles in detail. Both belong to the order Turtles, but they have some significant differences in characteristics and living habits.
turtle
Habitat: Turtles mostly live in terrestrial and freshwater environments. They usually live in rivers, lakes and swamp areas, where they seek food and habitat.
Appearance: Turtles usually have fairly rounded carapace, which helps them to walk on land. The carapace is usually rounded to help them move on land and protect themselves.
Adaptability: Turtles are able to switch between land and water with ease. They can swim in the water, but more often than not prefer to rest on land.

Appearance: Softshell turtles usually have a flat carapace, which helps them swim in the water. The shape and structure of their carapace facilitate their movement in the water.
Adaptability: Turtles are semi-aquatic, able to swim well in water but can also walk on land when needed.
Summary of differences
Habitat: Turtles are more accustomed to terrestrial and freshwater environments, while soft-shell turtles are more common in fresh or brackish water environments.
Carapace characteristics: The turtle's carapace is usually rounded and suitable for walking on land, while the turtle's carapace is usually flat and suitable for swimming in the water.
Behavioral characteristics: Turtles more often rest on land, while soft-shell turtles prefer to feed and live in the water.
Although both species belong to the order Turtles, they have obvious differences in ecological adaptations and behavioral habits. Understanding these differences can help people better understand and protect these animals.
