What does the pronunciation of tortoise mean?

Tortoise is pronounced wgu, which means a reptile belonging to the order Tortoise. The tortoise is round or oval, and its back is composed of many hard bone plates, which can hardly be extended or retracted. Its life span is very long, and some turtles live to 150 years old. In China culture, the tortoise symbolizes longevity and auspiciousness, and is regarded as one of the auspicious animals.

Due to human overfishing and environmental damage, the number of many sea turtles is decreasing or endangered. Therefore, the protection of turtles is particularly important. Protecting turtles not only helps to maintain ecological balance, but also helps to protect biodiversity and strengthen the stability of the natural environment. At the same time, the tortoise is also an important food-borne species, which can bring economic benefits to local residents, and its protection can also promote the benign development of tourism.

In China culture, the tortoise not only symbolizes longevity and good luck, but also is associated with many legends and myths. It is said that in the hands of the Queen Mother of the West, there is a turtle who can only manipulate the king of beasts in the world. It has a panacea that can make people live forever. In addition, in the gossip of the Book of Changes, turtles are also used to predict mysterious forces. Therefore, the turtle is not only an important research object of ecology, but also an important element that cannot be ignored in China culture.
