Rescue #48 was found in Selma, CA in a lower income neighborhood, and covered in mud. Some men were poking him with a stick.

I must admit, someone is getting through to these people. Most of the sulcatas being turned in to me, especially this year, are lookin' pretty darned good:

I didn't weigh him, so I'm only guessing him to be about 50lbs. He will be available for adoption in two weeks. There is no fee, but I have to come see the yard you want to keep him in - so it has to be a local adoption, Fresno, Clovis, or any small town within a half hour's drive from Clovis.

Misty pays absolutely no attention to my tortoises (except for their poop), but as soon as a new tortoise is deposited on the ground, she has to smell it all over. She's very interested in how new tortoises smell.

"New tortoise smell" - Wonder if they make a pine tree air freshener in that variety?

Good looking tort!

Because I want to keep Misty as a guard dog, whenever strangers come over I don't let her outside. So after the people have gone and I let Misty come outside, she goes all around where the people have walked and gives the ground a good sniff. I love watching her 'smell.'
