topic given- 'write about your favorite animal [and again...]'

Though not the fastest of them all,
On the contrary, quite small,
He doesn't care 'bout being feared
And hides away when he is neared.
With shell of steel and face of fleece,
A strong advocate for world peace,
Do not ask him to jump a hurtle,
My favorite animal is the turtle!
