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).

We have a sulcata too, only about 4 years old but of course growing pretty quickly.

If I could go back to tell 10 year old me that future me would have a tortoise waiting at the back door to go out like one of the dogs, it would have blown my mind. I’ve always loved turtles. Even the ninja kind.
