My husband and I have been considering getting a sulcata tort. We live in Western Washington and have done LOTS of research on caring for them and believe that we can properly support their needs. The big debate is on whether to buy a young tort from a reliable breeder or to adopt. We like the idea of giving a home to a tort in need but are concerned about the trauma it could have been through. Can they become aggressive if they were mistreated? An animal that can weigh over 100 pounds could do some damage. And if it is aggressive can you tame them down?
