Well I still think she loves me!! I’m sure your correct though. My wife said the same thing.She’s pumping her legs up and down to breathe. Because of the shell, tortoises can’t expand their diaphragms to breathe the way other animals can. The movements help push air into and out of the lungs.
Tortoises don’t get excited, I’m afraid. But that doesn’t make them any less interesting.
