There are so many 414Please respect copyright.PENANAtNW05GMndh
amazing animals to choose from, it's quite hard to choose a favourite 414Please respect copyright.PENANAORnPbpUsHa
out of all of them. But if I was held at gunpoint and someone demanded 414Please respect copyright.PENANACAyA7lmsM9
me to choose one, I'd have to go with a tortoise, the surface cousins of414Please respect copyright.PENANAhZBZ5ibGnP
turtles.414Please respect copyright.PENANAUnNu3qTyx0
Now I wanted a tortoise 414Please respect copyright.PENANASaGC7wF4Df
pet for a very long time now, but living circumstances haven't allowed 414Please respect copyright.PENANAdfElB0wpnc
me to get one, yet at least. When I mentioned getting a tortoise to my 414Please respect copyright.PENANAh5bAsBR4T1
family most of them laughed, since they don't see tortoises as very 414Please respect copyright.PENANAvbeBXPsDIk
active pets and they believed that it wouldn't do anything but just sit 414Please respect copyright.PENANAiekS1FJ0ft
out in the warm UV light getting a tan.414Please respect copyright.PENANAAJ2DLmYryp
And are they wrong? No! 414Please respect copyright.PENANABOVAFXXiO1
But that's what makes them great pets, I can relate to wanting being in 414Please respect copyright.PENANA51U9Diw8GY
the sun all day without a care in the world. Of course there's more to 414Please respect copyright.PENANAdKKvRKoAhK
tortoises than that, for example tortoises are known for their long 414Please respect copyright.PENANATB36bYGyaC
lives. Pet turtles are known to live for around 80 years, while some 414Please respect copyright.PENANAtht2TF2K1j
larger species are known to have lived for 100s! Currently the oldest 414Please respect copyright.PENANAPdvbblBEkQ
tortoise, Jonathan, is about 187 years old. Tortoises, if well looked 414Please respect copyright.PENANAgQRlUjOcvN
after, can be companions for life, and not only your life but your 414Please respect copyright.PENANAcLcZ7kBmK2
children's lives as well.414Please respect copyright.PENANAIJPIFVDqTL
Now looking after a 414Please respect copyright.PENANAFyDn8n3yBr
tortoise can have its challenges, as with any reptile. You should always414Please respect copyright.PENANAKm6SXbt66F
make sure you have enough space in your enclosure, researching the 414Please respect copyright.PENANAwV0NXzE6lr
species should prevent any surprises as some can outgrow your wildest 414Please respect copyright.PENANAObyw0CddPp
expectations, and that the enclosure has enough heat for your tortoise. A414Please respect copyright.PENANA8zQ5rJP73C
healthy diet of green goodness is also important for them as they are 414Please respect copyright.PENANAMiqPtuEZZN
herbivores. Finally tortoises are not the friendliest pets, so they're 414Please respect copyright.PENANAuW2X9BYGPN
not the most cuddliest or appreciative of getting picked up, but I 414Please respect copyright.PENANAjVCv5YQLwG
believe that they are completely worth it.
