Dear All,
I haven't got any tortoises (yet), but I still consider myself the luckiest man alive in relation to our chelonian friends: I am an ecologist working on the Aldabra giant tortoise in its homeland, the Aldabra Atoll. I aim to spend at least 1-2 months on the atoll per year (otherwise my dear wife would get too jealous of them thar scaly fellas, alas).
I have already learnt a lot about (many species of) tortoises from different keepers and breeders, and hope to learn a lot here, too.
Cheers,
Dennis
Oh, and here's a photo of myself, a colleague, and one of 'our' herds:
