The Brazilian tortoise will have the following 6 behaviors after getting to know its owner:

1. Do not refuse the food fed by the owner, and actively stick out its head when the owner feeds.

2. Take the initiative to approach the owner. When smelling the owner's scent, he will take the initiative to move closer to the owner's position.

3. Do not resist the owner's teasing. The Brazilian tortoise will not resist the owner's touch, but will interact with the owner. If a stranger touches it and approaches it, it may be bitten.

4. Once a stranger comes to the home, the Brazilian turtle will retract its head. When there is only the owner at home, the Brazilian turtle will not be restrained and will explore everywhere with curiosity.

5. It does not show any movement to escape, but approaches you. This is also a sign of recognition of the owner.

6. When it sees its owner feeding, it will paddle its limbs in the water very quickly and frequently.
