There are all sorts of animals in the Bible, but no tortoise. On this birthday card, however, a psalm is quoted, the next line of which reads "for he founded it (i.e. the world) over the seas..." (Luther translation) and this is where the connection to the sea turtle shown comes from. On the other hand, a pair of turtles can usually be seen in pictorial representations of Noah's Ark.
