Has anyone experienced a tortoise of thiers bering stung by a scorpion or a bitten by a black widow? I believe thats what happened to one of my little guys the other day. It was the most awful thing I have ever seen with my own eyes. If you have ever experienced a black widow bite then you know what it can do to a human hand or foot but when a little tortoise is bitten its awful. My torts have been walking around my backyard and digging under bushes for months and nothing like this has happened. I have moved my other one back into his tank that he hates because I dont want to lose him too. I was wondering if there were any other tort accidents like this and if its safe to leave my bigger one in the backyard? I think Ill leave him in his tank from now on to be safe but he really hates it in there.
