Hi I have a red foot tortoise & she from the time she first came home at then half the size now, she would always try to escape her enclosure, now I often take her to outdoor open grass fields to roam around. At home she roams around to certain part of the house & frequently finds & returns to the same hiding place, I heard from other experienced keepers incidences of their tortoises escaping their outdoor enclosures & in some cases never found again. I would like to know are all tortoises nomadic animals that roams the terrains their whole lives for food & nesting places? Do they ever return to where they once hatched or have a sense of their own territorial home?
