Is our Pole a leopard tortoise? Please let me know your opinion!

Hello everyone,

I'm Cat and new to this group. We recently inherited a 30 yr old tortoise from my boyfriends Papa and have been doing some research into looking after him.

I could never really tell what kind of tortoise he is however some members from my introduction post believe he could be a leopard tortoise. I have attached some pictures below if you could let me know your thoughts?

Thank you
Cat

Absolutely a leopard tortoise. No doubt. No need to wonder any more!

Thank you YvonneG I just wanted to get more thoughts before I started to give him the appropriate care and before I tell his family what he is!

That's a nice looking Leopard. One that age / size could eat a big pile of weeds & grass daily.

Hope all goes well with him.
Welcome.

30 years old is quite impressive.

It's hard to judge from the pictures, but what is his size?

Please let his enclosure be on soft grass and weeds. Beautiful tort grats. Take care
