Elongated and forestens personality

[Yurtle]

Hi, I'm considering getting either an elongated or forestens tortoise and I've found little on what the personality of these species is like. I'd really appreciate it if some of you guys who own these tortoises could fill me in on some information about what their personalities are generally like.

Aggressive (very territorial). Wild caught specimen are frequently shy.

Very curious and alert when captive bred, but extremely aggressive to the point of killing one another. Forstenii is one of my favorite species for sure.
