Do turtles poop out their mouths?

I mentioned earlier that turtles pump their throats and mouths, but it's not pumping air into their lungs. However, some species of aquatic turtles can absorb oxygen through their mouth/throat system. ... The cloaca of a turtle is the "common poop chute" where poo, pee, eggs, and mating all occur.
