Leopard Tortoise (Chobe National Park - S. Africa)

I thought this would be cool to share with the Leopard Tortoise Community.

This summer while visiting South Africa, I had the opportunity to go on a safari in the vast Chobe National Park in Botswana. While trekking through the bush back to our vehicle, this little guy comes strolling along down the path.[emoji217]

Always awesome to see torts in the wild.

Love this. I had to enlarge it as I'm only on my phone. To me it looks a bit pyramided, is it? Maybe they don't grow quite so smooth in the wild like a lot of us are having a hard time doing.
Thanks for sharing. Love pics of tortoises in the wild.

You’re welcome.

I don’t think that he was completely smooth.
