All turtles breathe by moving their throat pouch up and down, because they do not have a flexible rib cage or a diaphragm. By pumping their throat, or buccal pouch, they are forcing air in and out of their lungs, the way our diaphragm does.

Turtles also pump their arms or legs for the same reason: to move air, since their rib cage has evolved into a fixed shell. Some turtles, like box turtles and hingeback tortoises, do have a movable shell, and you can watch it move when they breathe, kind of like our rib cage. But they can still use buccal- and limb-pumping to breathe as well.

GoPro tried to break out of its rut, but a streak of terrible product launches, like the overpriced Session and the faulty Karma drone, undermined consumer and investor confidence. Those are the key factors that sank GoPro stock, but the company is ramping up again.  GoPro insists that it will still be able to keep putting out new hardware and software products with its leaner overhead, but it’s going to be hard to keep morale positive as seasoned individuals are walking out their doors.
