Molly is a Forsten's Tortoise (Indotestudo forstenii) that was kept in captivity in CT for more than 20 years. by people who bought her as a Russian Tortoise. She was posted on Facebook, and the ad was shared here on the forum. We snatched her up and got her to Ben, the forstenii master. This species is Endangered, so getting her into the right situation was imperative. Now, you can see the fruits of our labor!(mostly Ben's labor) It's a great story. So many wasted years of her life, but now she gets to help her species.So cute!! What is Molly's story?! What kind of tortoise is that? Congrats on the hatchlings
