There are so many 612Please respect copyright.PENANAvU7RGnwCjY
amazing animals to choose from, it's quite hard to choose a favourite 612Please respect copyright.PENANAc0ApcrrLtX
out of all of them. But if I was held at gunpoint and someone demanded 612Please respect copyright.PENANAcqDsTPVTnk
me to choose one, I'd have to go with a tortoise, the surface cousins of612Please respect copyright.PENANAAGgSX1vR5s
turtles.612Please respect copyright.PENANAg4ypQiW8u2
Now I wanted a tortoise 612Please respect copyright.PENANAlE8mldoQ8H
pet for a very long time now, but living circumstances haven't allowed 612Please respect copyright.PENANAHo4ua2SSIM
me to get one, yet at least. When I mentioned getting a tortoise to my 612Please respect copyright.PENANAPb329gduW6
family most of them laughed, since they don't see tortoises as very 612Please respect copyright.PENANAW0I2mGlek2
active pets and they believed that it wouldn't do anything but just sit 612Please respect copyright.PENANALAkfyUpxCj
out in the warm UV light getting a tan.612Please respect copyright.PENANAglLxrRPfI2
And are they wrong? No! 612Please respect copyright.PENANAJ8k5CTvuJz
But that's what makes them great pets, I can relate to wanting being in 612Please respect copyright.PENANAk4wVzQfSV4
the sun all day without a care in the world. Of course there's more to 612Please respect copyright.PENANAB4sYfPSVe0
tortoises than that, for example tortoises are known for their long 612Please respect copyright.PENANAzipdPu1537
lives. Pet turtles are known to live for around 80 years, while some 612Please respect copyright.PENANA7C6pW2wVPb
larger species are known to have lived for 100s! Currently the oldest 612Please respect copyright.PENANA5QEOscQ456
tortoise, Jonathan, is about 187 years old. Tortoises, if well looked 612Please respect copyright.PENANA3LDfmGQgQb
after, can be companions for life, and not only your life but your 612Please respect copyright.PENANAX6n7wQ6UQr
children's lives as well.612Please respect copyright.PENANAAGktkAMk8k
Now looking after a 612Please respect copyright.PENANAnuWfBgnqsk
tortoise can have its challenges, as with any reptile. You should always612Please respect copyright.PENANAay35sJBjju
make sure you have enough space in your enclosure, researching the 612Please respect copyright.PENANAOzVoc2wN2i
species should prevent any surprises as some can outgrow your wildest 612Please respect copyright.PENANANMLZI0u9hA
expectations, and that the enclosure has enough heat for your tortoise. A612Please respect copyright.PENANAKM1cDv12MU
healthy diet of green goodness is also important for them as they are 612Please respect copyright.PENANAmgGDOlqW0a
herbivores. Finally tortoises are not the friendliest pets, so they're 612Please respect copyright.PENANAtMSmT3lqEx
not the most cuddliest or appreciative of getting picked up, but I 612Please respect copyright.PENANALr9zTG6Ud4
believe that they are completely worth it.
