Tortoises (family Testudinae) are reptiles that are very closely related to turtles. The main difference between the two is that turtles are mainly aquatic, while tortoises are land-dwelling. Tortoises also tend to be herbivorous, while turtles tend to be carnivorous or omnivorous.
Tortoises can be found in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa. They vary between 4" to 6' in diameter, and can live up to 120 years.
Tortoises can be a big responsibility! Please do lots of research before bringing home a pet tortoise so you can give it the best life possible.
