I have to love mohs for coming through with the Aldabra, and a fine looking specimen he is (The tortoise, that is) YEAH ! ![(yahoo)](//storage.proboards.com/1258779/images/pzfVzPIXxWTVDaYVLftq.gif) . It looks like he's headed somewhere with a purpose, maybe feeding time ? I don't think I'd want to get in his way
The sulcata will be smaller, but look somewhat similar. From what I know, an Aldabra might be 500 lbs, and a sulcata might be 200.
Still impressive, and too big to pick up.
Both the sulcata & the gazelle's are African, so it makes sense to keep them together, like in the wild.
I've never seen an Aldabra in person - maybe some day.......
THANK YOU mohs - made my dreary rainy, full of annoying work day.
Patty
