There are so many 847Please respect copyright.PENANAgXZlVvDzEr
amazing animals to choose from, it's quite hard to choose a favourite 847Please respect copyright.PENANARCuWluAXdp
out of all of them. But if I was held at gunpoint and someone demanded 847Please respect copyright.PENANA9LIS0CZo2x
me to choose one, I'd have to go with a tortoise, the surface cousins of847Please respect copyright.PENANA40Q7KBgk40
turtles.847Please respect copyright.PENANAeEP3GMHUbi
Now I wanted a tortoise 847Please respect copyright.PENANApG5iYRu1Tn
pet for a very long time now, but living circumstances haven't allowed 847Please respect copyright.PENANAaZRLoIQFsb
me to get one, yet at least. When I mentioned getting a tortoise to my 847Please respect copyright.PENANATcJYnl7HPl
family most of them laughed, since they don't see tortoises as very 847Please respect copyright.PENANAK99lcbwS6v
active pets and they believed that it wouldn't do anything but just sit 847Please respect copyright.PENANAOCvCD2DBpQ
out in the warm UV light getting a tan.847Please respect copyright.PENANAGLmK0I5Je7
And are they wrong? No! 847Please respect copyright.PENANA2yQasQRW1c
But that's what makes them great pets, I can relate to wanting being in 847Please respect copyright.PENANAuoDyMttq2k
the sun all day without a care in the world. Of course there's more to 847Please respect copyright.PENANAwPXtRozmyJ
tortoises than that, for example tortoises are known for their long 847Please respect copyright.PENANA8cwpxSjxgA
lives. Pet turtles are known to live for around 80 years, while some 847Please respect copyright.PENANAb1JJjMZuSC
larger species are known to have lived for 100s! Currently the oldest 847Please respect copyright.PENANApVKxBsdTGk
tortoise, Jonathan, is about 187 years old. Tortoises, if well looked 847Please respect copyright.PENANA565UVcrmJP
after, can be companions for life, and not only your life but your 847Please respect copyright.PENANAm3pBwooP6H
children's lives as well.847Please respect copyright.PENANAv0s6lJiJB2
Now looking after a 847Please respect copyright.PENANAjjkkTyTIqs
tortoise can have its challenges, as with any reptile. You should always847Please respect copyright.PENANAVucN72HC2C
make sure you have enough space in your enclosure, researching the 847Please respect copyright.PENANA5G7GrRJ6f8
species should prevent any surprises as some can outgrow your wildest 847Please respect copyright.PENANAn7By2ZQqls
expectations, and that the enclosure has enough heat for your tortoise. A847Please respect copyright.PENANALt8fd4JKCZ
healthy diet of green goodness is also important for them as they are 847Please respect copyright.PENANAbpPwfY0c3X
herbivores. Finally tortoises are not the friendliest pets, so they're 847Please respect copyright.PENANALzZprodh3K
not the most cuddliest or appreciative of getting picked up, but I 847Please respect copyright.PENANAdAE3XrYr76
believe that they are completely worth it.
