    This is heaven for my tortoise. She loves pumpkins and we tell everyone in the neighborhood to bring all their old Halloween pumpkins to our place after they’re done with them.

    Carved pumpkin getting a little wilty? She doesn’t care. Munch munch munch! Delicious.

        Giant Sulcata Tortoise. Rescued from a highway in northern Florida. We adopter her at the (desperate) request of animal control.

        The vet guessed she’s around 20 years old. She weighs about 100lbs right now (was only 85 when we took her in).

          The kind they have (sulcata or African spurred tortoise) is 3rd largest behind Galapagos and Aldabra tortoises, but they are common and cheap in comparison to those.
