There are so many 610Please respect copyright.PENANAOruFQRESRC
amazing animals to choose from, it's quite hard to choose a favourite 610Please respect copyright.PENANArWAQwp1djt
out of all of them. But if I was held at gunpoint and someone demanded 610Please respect copyright.PENANAtHRZ0khjju
me to choose one, I'd have to go with a tortoise, the surface cousins of610Please respect copyright.PENANAbccvuoGbV9
turtles.610Please respect copyright.PENANAQF0iYhpOVf
Now I wanted a tortoise 610Please respect copyright.PENANAtDS9AUNEwG
pet for a very long time now, but living circumstances haven't allowed 610Please respect copyright.PENANA9ILEbeBVqj
me to get one, yet at least. When I mentioned getting a tortoise to my 610Please respect copyright.PENANAeoIty0kI7K
family most of them laughed, since they don't see tortoises as very 610Please respect copyright.PENANALLnJ9nla8Z
active pets and they believed that it wouldn't do anything but just sit 610Please respect copyright.PENANAnw8WBn5NQ9
out in the warm UV light getting a tan.610Please respect copyright.PENANATRAJ40SKo9
And are they wrong? No! 610Please respect copyright.PENANA1RFhNIhiKn
But that's what makes them great pets, I can relate to wanting being in 610Please respect copyright.PENANAHiYR3qSWgo
the sun all day without a care in the world. Of course there's more to 610Please respect copyright.PENANATk3LYwk3eB
tortoises than that, for example tortoises are known for their long 610Please respect copyright.PENANAMU2yxeqf59
lives. Pet turtles are known to live for around 80 years, while some 610Please respect copyright.PENANAAm6VcVKMGT
larger species are known to have lived for 100s! Currently the oldest 610Please respect copyright.PENANAw3tloHm1T9
tortoise, Jonathan, is about 187 years old. Tortoises, if well looked 610Please respect copyright.PENANAr4lyODMvE7
after, can be companions for life, and not only your life but your 610Please respect copyright.PENANA4XUpsBorA1
children's lives as well.610Please respect copyright.PENANAG9qETZjpHz
Now looking after a 610Please respect copyright.PENANAH6Wpti5OGa
tortoise can have its challenges, as with any reptile. You should always610Please respect copyright.PENANABQDstMzAvu
make sure you have enough space in your enclosure, researching the 610Please respect copyright.PENANAOHZy17WJBP
species should prevent any surprises as some can outgrow your wildest 610Please respect copyright.PENANAsYTLK5bCvN
expectations, and that the enclosure has enough heat for your tortoise. A610Please respect copyright.PENANAtrCzqGzJZp
healthy diet of green goodness is also important for them as they are 610Please respect copyright.PENANAyNty3Y0hpt
herbivores. Finally tortoises are not the friendliest pets, so they're 610Please respect copyright.PENANAV484Jm5kzp
not the most cuddliest or appreciative of getting picked up, but I 610Please respect copyright.PENANABj1hqkpUkf
believe that they are completely worth it.
