Golden jordanian and golden greek together????

[MEvans071889]

Hi agian,
I'm wondering if golden jordanians, "testudo graeca sp.", area of origin jordan, and gold greeks, "testudo graeca terrestris", area of origin is lebanon, could be raised and housed together. According to online sources they both have very similar diets and almost exact the same climate necessities. wondering if anyone has any reason to believe they couldnt live together?

They are the same thing. You can certainly keep them together. There is no taxonomic distinction between them, as both are T. g terrestris, just separated by a political border.
Sort of like saying "Can I keep an eastern box turtle from Virginia and one from North Carolina in the same pen".
