What is another word for bastard turtle?
Pronunciation: [bˈastəd tˈɜːtə͡l] (IPA) 
The term "bastard turtle" is a derogatory name used to describe turtles that are hybridized or crossbred. Other terms that may be used as synonyms for this name include mixed-breed turtles, mongrel turtles or even mutt turtles. These turtles are often seen as inferior to purebred turtles, due to their mixed genetics, and may not be recognized as a distinct species. Other terms that are sometimes used to describe these turtles can depend on the species that was used in the crossbreeding, such as "red-eared slider hybrid" or "painted turtle mix". It is important to note that crossbreeding can have serious consequences for the health and well-being of turtles, and should not be encouraged.
