577Please respect copyright.PENANAZqfv1GEqMT
There are so many 577Please respect copyright.PENANAhqEfgpsoKN
amazing animals to choose from, it's quite hard to choose a favourite 577Please respect copyright.PENANAuuWHgGx1t9
out of all of them. But if I was held at gunpoint and someone demanded 577Please respect copyright.PENANArWyYb4oyNV
me to choose one, I'd have to go with a tortoise, the surface cousins of577Please respect copyright.PENANAznELrkGZTk
turtles.577Please respect copyright.PENANADR619OJBVR
Now I wanted a tortoise 577Please respect copyright.PENANADWmzmxevnE
pet for a very long time now, but living circumstances haven't allowed 577Please respect copyright.PENANA7PGTKMC3W2
me to get one, yet at least. When I mentioned getting a tortoise to my 577Please respect copyright.PENANAOvbzE7eCjF
family most of them laughed, since they don't see tortoises as very 577Please respect copyright.PENANAlMnq5w0L7b
active pets and they believed that it wouldn't do anything but just sit 577Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8A5NKeFRy
out in the warm UV light getting a tan.577Please respect copyright.PENANAeQHGACMSRR
And are they wrong? No! 577Please respect copyright.PENANA238AcvFdDH
But that's what makes them great pets, I can relate to wanting being in 577Please respect copyright.PENANA0vnM5USQlv
the sun all day without a care in the world. Of course there's more to 577Please respect copyright.PENANA8GylLzsqOp
tortoises than that, for example tortoises are known for their long 577Please respect copyright.PENANAkQ5p2eNYyE
lives. Pet turtles are known to live for around 80 years, while some 577Please respect copyright.PENANA6C8kXNmxn3
larger species are known to have lived for 100s! Currently the oldest 577Please respect copyright.PENANALsFPDVXgSs
tortoise, Jonathan, is about 187 years old. Tortoises, if well looked 577Please respect copyright.PENANAqaVnmzWQvj
after, can be companions for life, and not only your life but your 577Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6tGjhYdl7
children's lives as well.577Please respect copyright.PENANAnsVO0IC5VL
Now looking after a 577Please respect copyright.PENANAzXopJpxdGw
tortoise can have its challenges, as with any reptile. You should always577Please respect copyright.PENANAS9lge2sWzp
make sure you have enough space in your enclosure, researching the 577Please respect copyright.PENANAMu724fMtzS
species should prevent any surprises as some can outgrow your wildest 577Please respect copyright.PENANA9r0lY0NRWA
expectations, and that the enclosure has enough heat for your tortoise. A577Please respect copyright.PENANARlrV0gD7DE
healthy diet of green goodness is also important for them as they are 577Please respect copyright.PENANAnz69nYn4F5
herbivores. Finally tortoises are not the friendliest pets, so they're 577Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5eUJssKNo
not the most cuddliest or appreciative of getting picked up, but I 577Please respect copyright.PENANAdmvnMxOg0C
believe that they are completely worth it.
