Some rare Australian turtles have an astonishing survival strategy: obtaining oxygen through cloacal respiration. For certain freshwater turtles like the Fitzroy River turtle, the cloaca contains specialized sacs lined with blood vessels that absorb dissolved oxygen from water. This remarkable adaptation allows them to stay submerged for much longer periods, a benefit in environments with low oxygen or during winter with ice-covered surfaces. They still rely on lungs for breathing air, however,
