Meet Our Russian Tortoise

We adopted this little fella from Virginia Reptile Rescue.

Our new family member has been named Boris Lennon. He moves quite fast. He speed walks to his next dandelion or plantain leaf, takes a bite, and moves on. His favorite foods are dandelions and violets. Boris even eats the dandelion flower stems as close to eating spaghetti as a tortoise can do.

He's quite a character and can be pet and fed dandelions during presentations.
