The Mock Turtle, which appears in Lewis Carroll’s {see planet  (6984)} Alice’s adventures in Wonderland, has a turtle’s shell and front flippers, but a cow’s head and a cow’s back legs and tail. Once he was a Real Turtle. The Mock Turtle has “large eyes full of tears”. In a voice choked with sobs, he sings a song to Alice about soup. (M 42358) _ _.
