Zoo, Tortoises
|
The sign on Leopard Tortoise enclosure read:
"These beautiful tortoises are named for the spotted pattern on their shells.
This colorful pattern helps you tortoises to blend in with their
African grassland habitats. Older tortoises
can reach a weight of over 100 pounds and therefore need no protection from
predators."
