Possible Mistreatment
Some people expressed concern for Reptar after watching his Turtle Thoughts videos. They believed Greg was mistreating Reptar. One of the major examples they give is how Greg holds Reptar in the air when he runs around with him. They say turtles panic when their feet dangle, so it would be better for Reptar if Greg held Reptar with his feet in his palm, rather than pretending he can fly.
Another concerning moment for Reptar was on April 3, 2013, when he became stuck between a rock and the side of his tank. Rather than helping Reptar right away, Greg posted a photo of him to Instagram: "Reptar got stuck and passed out on a rock... LOL." (Source)
