Turtles can recognize their owners. Although tortoises are cold-blooded animals, they will recognize their owners through smell and sound, and will slowly get used to their owners' presence through conditioned reflexes. Tortoises are relatively timid and may feel scared when they first come into contact with their owners. However, as long as the owner is more patient, the tortoises will get closer to you. Usually after the tortoise recognizes its owner, it can still interact with the owner at all times.

Performances of tortoise recognition:

1. Open its mouth to receive food. If the owner feeds the tortoise, the tortoise will take the initiative to approach him, open his mouth, and wait for him to feed. This also means that the tortoise recognizes the owner.

2. Identify the owner. Tortoises can also distinguish between their owners and strangers. Once a stranger comes to the home, the tortoise will retract its head and become a shrunken turtle. When there is only one owner at home, the tortoise will not be restrained and will explore everywhere with curiosity.

3. Will not run away. Speaking of the tortoise's recognition of its owner, if it does not run away but approaches you when it is raised, this is also a sign of the tortoise's recognition of its owner, and it may ask the owner for food.
