Hello!

This may seem like a strange question but I'm being completely serious and would appreciate assistance with an answer lol

A line in a movie came up about a type of turtle that could have sex for 3 days straight. Is this true? Or what is the average time for a sexual session of a turtle?

Answers very much appreciated!

When I kept any males. My REDFOOT would persue females 24/7 during our long rainy season. Mating endlessly it seemed.
Each "session" was about 5 or 10 minutes long with lots of vocalizations. Over and over. All day long.

As a female, I reply "ouch" on behalf of all those who can't.
