There are so many 592Please respect copyright.PENANAfsRipqh079
amazing animals to choose from, it's quite hard to choose a favourite 592Please respect copyright.PENANAlRvu2kOb5m
out of all of them. But if I was held at gunpoint and someone demanded 592Please respect copyright.PENANAHfYuWBJAQF
me to choose one, I'd have to go with a tortoise, the surface cousins of592Please respect copyright.PENANAFzL50MIKwW
turtles.592Please respect copyright.PENANAezpedveFvz
Now I wanted a tortoise 592Please respect copyright.PENANA9mhjUaLfz4
pet for a very long time now, but living circumstances haven't allowed 592Please respect copyright.PENANAMy1MHImRCs
me to get one, yet at least. When I mentioned getting a tortoise to my 592Please respect copyright.PENANAOFag160Yih
family most of them laughed, since they don't see tortoises as very 592Please respect copyright.PENANAbERAkNqtng
active pets and they believed that it wouldn't do anything but just sit 592Please respect copyright.PENANADHEvuXlFiq
out in the warm UV light getting a tan.592Please respect copyright.PENANAXEGNOWI12t
And are they wrong? No! 592Please respect copyright.PENANAlGG4IyKZrY
But that's what makes them great pets, I can relate to wanting being in 592Please respect copyright.PENANAB2bsLq9zwB
the sun all day without a care in the world. Of course there's more to 592Please respect copyright.PENANAc1lssdabSX
tortoises than that, for example tortoises are known for their long 592Please respect copyright.PENANAohkgPx9hK6
lives. Pet turtles are known to live for around 80 years, while some 592Please respect copyright.PENANAozK92D6RcC
larger species are known to have lived for 100s! Currently the oldest 592Please respect copyright.PENANAiN3ZEQ6r9a
tortoise, Jonathan, is about 187 years old. Tortoises, if well looked 592Please respect copyright.PENANAWl7aDMDeme
after, can be companions for life, and not only your life but your 592Please respect copyright.PENANAHLAVDNyIZl
children's lives as well.592Please respect copyright.PENANA9nLjsmHs7p
Now looking after a 592Please respect copyright.PENANAsPhdHEdNL0
tortoise can have its challenges, as with any reptile. You should always592Please respect copyright.PENANAnxkDdZHlSM
make sure you have enough space in your enclosure, researching the 592Please respect copyright.PENANAjOAig7k01Q
species should prevent any surprises as some can outgrow your wildest 592Please respect copyright.PENANA7n8EQNk29e
expectations, and that the enclosure has enough heat for your tortoise. A592Please respect copyright.PENANAoRgJL5zYwr
healthy diet of green goodness is also important for them as they are 592Please respect copyright.PENANAH7htSUzr7X
herbivores. Finally tortoises are not the friendliest pets, so they're 592Please respect copyright.PENANACF9p1bMqD3
not the most cuddliest or appreciative of getting picked up, but I 592Please respect copyright.PENANAFbrMP4J1Wf
believe that they are completely worth it.
