Turtles and their ilk have been around for about 220 million years (since the late Triassic Period), and the stegosaurus walked around about 150 million years ago (in the late Jurassic Period). Despite the legend, turtles can flip over once they're upside-down. Unlike this particular stegosaurus. Thus making turtles one of the most successful groups of animals ever to flop around the earth #🐢 #mesozoicmonday #paleontology (at Seattle, Washington)
