Hi guys, I know there are tons of these threads but, I was hoping maybe someone could help identify a tortoise I found when cleaning my parents back yard. To me he looks like a desert tortoise but I'm just guessing. There were tons of weeds and stuff in the yard and no idea how or when he got back there. Have not been able to find his momma. Also, my mom fell in love with him and is thinking of keeping him. I know we're probably not supposed to but, I saw another post here from Las Vegas (where we live) that said they were putting them to sleep!!! Can't have that. So any ideas on creating a habitat for him? They have dogs too so maybe the back yard is not the best place.
