If you go into a petstore and there husbandry is awful you can take pics and post them along with the store on http://www.tortoisetrust.org/ it is on the home page at the bottom. Just an FYI..

good to know! i just saw some russians in a local store that were in need of some TLC
I should put together a way for us to do the same for pet stores in the U.S.! a "Wall of Shame -- Poor Tortoise Husbandry"
what do you all think?

I think that's a good idea Josh. I think maybe you could even post what stores are doing a good job too.

Crazy1 is right. If we're going to point out something negative, also have something positive. Some breeders/stores out there do care about their animals and should be commended for their keep.

Sounds good -- now I have something to do on my Spring Break!
