Just wondering what kind of tortoise this is cause it is way cool. This vid is from Brazil so this is probably a native tortoise to the area.

I cannot see the details enough to positively identify it, but it is a turtle as opposed to a tortoise. Note the back feet are large, flattened, and webbed for swimming, not stumpy and elephant-like for walking on land as they are in a tortoise.
Not a tortoise. Could be anything semi-aquatic. Geomyda or Heosemys, or something like that. Adult male whatever it is.

Looks like a male reeves turtle to me based on the ridges on its shell and coloration. Chinemys reevesii.
