Tortoises dip their heads in water to drink. They need to submerge their entire mouth and nostrils to suck in water. Tortoises can drink through their nose or mouth, and also through their cloaca, which is the rear opening. They can close a nasal flap to prevent water from entering their lungs and instead direct it to their stomach.
