So, I am just wondering why turtles get all hidey when people are near them. Because people are all like "oh, they evolved so much that they hide in their shells when predators are near"
Which I understand perfectly.
But then I realized, if they had all this time to evolve since prehistoric ages, why are they not evolved enough to know who is a predator and who is not?
Because when, say, an innocent toddler walks up to a turtle and literally doesn't even touch it and the turtle can clearly see it's just a human toddler, shouldn't it be evolved enough to be like "oh, okay. Hey bro. You're not a coyote. We're good."
But it doesn't.
It just hides in its shell.
Ugh.
