Turtles are creatures in the Hungry Shark series (in both Hungry Shark World and Hungry Shark Evolution). They are often a welcomed sighting because unlike with any other creature in the game (except the penguin), turtles replenish Boost energy when consumed. Due to this, they are extremely useful when you are travelling against an Underwater Current or run out of boost.
Appearance in the Hungry Shark series[]
In the Hungry Shark series, turtles restore your shark's boost to the maximum. Boost is essential for speeding up your shark's movement and increasing attack (or bite) power.
Appearance in Hungry Shark Evolution[]
In Hungry Shark Evolution, turtles are just as important as before. They completely replenish the active shark's boost meter and provide a moderate amount of health replenishment. Turtles can be affected by accessories such as Lasers and Shark Vortex.
Location[]
Turtles are generally found in large, open areas of space. They normally spawn individually but in two particular locations, near Skull Island, and the Big Daddy spawn, the turtles spawn in one gigantic group.
They also spawn in the Crab Lair to help replenish boost, which is essential for fighting the Giant Crab.
Behaviour[]
Turtles swim fast in Hungry Shark Evolution. However, when using boost, turtles are easy to catch.
Sometimes, turtles seem to hide behind mines to protect themselves, but this is probably just a bug.
Eating Turtles[]
Turtles make the iconic crunch sound when eaten. When eaten, turtles fill up your shark's boost and refill a decent amount of health. The Baby Reef Shark cannot eat the turtles, and will instead clamp onto its shell in a vain attempt to eat them. However, this will stun the turtle so you can eat it with ease. (Hammer baby and above can eat them) If you watch your shark's boost capacity, when you eat a turtle, your boost capacity will be full again very quickly except for larger sharks (it will just refill up half or lower of the shark's boost).
Eating turtles give the accolades 'Max Boost', 'Crunch' and 'Turbo Turtle' on the player's screen.
Hungry Shark World[]
In Hungry Shark World, there are now small turtles and giant turtles. Small turtles can be eaten by any shark, but giant turtles require M sharks or above to be eaten. If you're NOT an M shark or above, the Giant turtle will (sort of) glow with red stuff around their body (but if you are an M shark or above the effect of the Giant turtle will disappear). Turtles can also be found on land near the right and left edges of the map in the Pacific Islands. In fact, there are sometimes more turtles than tourists on the Island of Heads. The mutation Turtle Power! can make them more common.
