Jungle Turtle

The Jungle Turtle is a critter that only serves as environment flavor and spawns in or near a body of water on the surface Jungle at any time. Due to them having only 5 HP and no defense, they are often killed instantly by enemies or the player itself. It is one of the few critters having no Gold variant.

It can be caught with any Bug Net to be carried around in the inventory and released later, or crafted into a Jungle Turtle Cage to be used as furniture. Once crafted, the caged jungle turtle cannot be released again, and when placed down it moves around inside the cage as it would do outside.
