Hello! Stumbled across a sulcata tortoise yesterday, in Allston, Massachusetts. Took it inside when I realized it was an escaped pet and not a wild native. Tortious Interference, as we've been calling it, is currently in a make shift habitat munching on grass and kale and I'm grabbing it a UV light today. Long-term, I've found a local rescue who will take it in and re-home. Short term, I'd like to try and find the original owner. Posters are going up, but looking for help doing a bit more. Anyone know of breeders it may have escaped from in Boston? It seems to be very young, barely as big as my palm, and I have small hands. Anyone know of vets in the area that serve tortoises? I'll call and leave my info, already alerted New England Wildlife and the Boston Animal Rescue League. Or even better, is this your tortoise?
