Hi,
A neighbor contacted us when they found this tortoise in their yard. We'd like to adopt it if nobody claims it or if it isn't a wild tortoise, although I don't think it's wild. From what I read, we don't have any wild tortoises in this area (Watsonville, California).
I think it's a Hermann's tortoise from what I was able to look up, but I could be way off. His shell is about 6-8" from head to tail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
