Terripins are turtles-aquatic in nature.

Yeah, but they don't have flippers.

And they cry themselves to sleep every night, just because of that!

Not eating them in soup will make them happy.

Many years ago, a friend of mine was hired to do an estimate on putting central air into the old Myerhoff mansion in downtown Baltimore.
He asked me to come along, as being a deputy Sheriff, I had my gun, and he was afraid of vagrants in the long empty place.
In the kitchen, I discovered a bank of hinged compartments in a wall, almost like night deposit chutes.
They were terripin bins, each one holding a single reptile until it was needed to make turtle soup-which began formal banquets.
There were a lot of bins.
So you can bet that turtles are happy when soup is cream of tomato!

But I'm not. I hate tomato soup.

We don't get cream of jeans over here, but leprechaun broth is pretty tasty.
