Actually sulcatas can adapt quite well. We took in one that was wild in austin for 3 years. The owners thought it was a native Texas tortoise. They moved from Alaska and had no idea. Well after 3 years of seeing it on there 1500 acres they took it in and kept it. I was amazed, because your correct, Austin can get cold during the winter indeed.If it did run away it will definitely die from the cold in Austin and if stolen well it's more likely to be sold for profit or kept.
