I do think there should be more info in tortoise first aid. There is just so much more info on mammals + getting to a GOOD vet can take a while with tortoises, so some common first aid procedures with pictured instructions, especially for newbies would be great here on the forum.

I know there are also some first aid kit instructions here, but many don't have the right stuff for cleaning tortoise wound for example before they already get them. Somehow more information should still be spread.
