Hermann's Tortoise

Hermann's tortoises are small, hardy and endearing turtles, who often thrive in captivity. But unfortunately, many people acquire them without first learning how to properly care for them. This often leads to frustrated keepers and rejected reptiles, which is bad for all parties. Accordingly, prospective keepers must learn as much as possible about the biology, behavior and ecology of the species, in order to provide their pets with the highest quality of life possible.
