Girlfriend found a Sulcata tortoise.

Yep, found it in our driveway on her way home from work. he is about the size of my open palm, including my fingers.



He has spikes on his rear end.





I put it in the backyard, and didn't to lose him, so i made it a little easier to see jajaja






Here's a video of it eating some mellon.

in the winter time don't you have to keep them in the fridge or bury them in the water to maximize their lifespan? I wanted one until i saw the maintenance on them and decided 4 dogs is enough
