"Tribal Turtle can live on land or water. Throws spears and coconuts, coconuts do extra damage to ceramic bloons and can pop frozen and lead bloons"

- Official Bloons TD 5 Description

Info


Tribal Turtle is a new Special Agent added in a Ninja Kiwi update on March 29, 2012. It has an average range, but its projectiles will go forever if there are no bloons in the way.

Spears can pop 2 bloons each; coconuts can pop 5.

Attacks
Tribal Turtle alternates between shooting spears and coconuts at bloons. The coconuts do extra damage to Ceramic Bloons and are able to pop frozen and Lead Bloons while the spears can't.

Cost
Since this is a Special Agent, it cost 85 Monkey Money.

Placement
Tribal Turtle can be placed on land and water. This is because turtles are amphibious.

Tribal Turtle Pro
To unlock the Tribal Turtle pro, you need to place 50 Tribal Turtles to get it. You will need 4,250 Monkey Money to be able to place a Tribal Turtle 50 times.

Trivia

 * Tribal Turtle is the only Special Agent that uses two different attacks.
 * The first three Daily Challenges after the Tribal Turtle update both gave Tribal Turtles for free. The first two gave one turtle, while the second gave two.
 * April 8 had a Daily Challenge that gave 8 free Tribal Turtles.
 * There are some levels where the area of water is too small to place monkey buccaneers, but since the Tribal Turtle can be placed on land AND water, it can be placed on half water, half land.


 * When you put it on water, there will be ripples around it.
 * This is the only agent that can pop lead bloons in a normal situation (the bloonsday device uses an ability and the angry squirrel needs to be enraged)
