| Killing a turtle in dreams, whether by accidentally crushing the turtle with a heavy object or deliberately killing this slow-moving animal for food, portends grief. A very close friend or family member may pass away, leaving you to mourn their death. This could also predict the death of a pet who is very dear to you. This death may be unexpected which makes your grief more intense and the mourning would be longer than usual as you adjust to a life without their comforting and loving presence. |  |
