Turtles are generally aquatic or semi-aquatic, but tortoises are terrestrial. Tortoises are plant eaters, but most turtles will eat anything. http://www.austinsturtlepage.com/Care/caresheets.htm

A tortuise is just a turtle that never learned how to spell its name.

Turtles,Tortoise or Terrapin are all of the same order.There isn't really anything different about them.Though they are referred differently due to where they can be found.A turtle is found in the sea,A terrapin is found in fresh or brackish waters and the tortoise is found on land.
