Yesterday I was at the Toronto Zoo, and got this journal made of elephant poop as a souvenir.View attachment 275398
They make it by taking the poop of animals with very high fibered diets and slightly undigested poop, like elephants, cows, horses, etc, removing contaminants like rocks and sticks, and boiling it to a pulp with other high fibered ingredients like hay. Here’s an excerpt from their site-
“All the animals that generate the poo that we require for our process have at least two things in common:

i. All are herbivores and have highly fibrous diets of bamboo, sugar cane, grasses, banana trees, leaves, twigs, fruits and/or various other plants and vegetation.

ii). All possess somewhat inefficient digestive systems that don’t completely digest and breakdown all the fibers that they eat. This results in a significant amount of fibers remaining intact when these animals poop.”https://www.poopoopaper.com/en/content/9-poop-to-paper-the-process

This got me thinking. While tortoises may not share that diet exactly, grass eaters like Sulcatas definitely have the grass down, and can have an extremely high fibered diet. This, along with the fact that their poop still looks very fibrous, makes me wonder if you could create paper out of tortoise poop.

I may try this if I decide that my parents won’t murder me for boiling poop in their pots, and when Curtis is officially outside full time and eating mostly grasses.

Thoughts?

There are all sorts of whacky words for drugs now, at my old school “hemp” and “hash” were used for marijuana. Also “ket” was a popular name for ketamine among the other kids. I’m glad I’ve left now

I just use my tort poop as fertilizer since I can't use any chemical fertilizer. That way it gets recycled.
