Hi! I am new here, so this is my first time posting. Yesterday, I found a sulcata tortoise walking across the road. The people who had moved him across the road had no clue what he was and were about to go put him in a pond thinking that he came from there. I finally convinced them that he really is not a water turtle, and most definitely not a native species, and was most likely someone's escaped pet. He is about a foot and half long and a foot wide, pretty big guy. I have posted signs around the area but so far have had no luck finding his owner. So my question is, any suggestions on some good temporary housing while I try to find his home? I have several box turtles, but I am new to Sulcatas. I have done some research on them in the past, but whatever suggestions you may have on how to keep him comfortable for the time being would be appreciated! I have attached a few photos of him. It's really hard to see how big he truly is, the picture really doesn't show his size well! Thanks in advance!
