What predators should I be most concerned about? I just got a redfoot this weekend. He is about 7 inches. I want to build an outdoor enclosure for him for the summer. I live outside Atlanta, and it is quite wooded in my backyard. I have seen coyotes, large owls, and hawks in my yard from time to time and this concerns me. Should I definitely build a top for the enclosure, or can I just provide him plenty of places to hide? Any tips from experienced tortoise owners would be appreciated
