right. lets start from the beginning...
I live in south england.
got this 5 year old tortoise about 6 months ago, from a friend who'd had these tortoises roaming round his garden, unsure of the species.
Spent the summer happily walking around the garden, all is fine, started to bring him in ready for hibernation. spent a few weeks in the kitchen, sleeping at night in a box(on its side, filled with straw). He'd stopped eatingand stuff, so I knew he was ready to hibernate. The we lost him...
we've checked the whole house so he must be outside. he's 'jumped' the door before but we can't find him anywhere.
So please can you kind people answer me these 4 questions...
1) what species is he?(this is the only photo i can find)
2) his shell is slightly pointed (does he suffer from "pyrimading")
3) how deep do toirtoises burrow?
4) what slim percentage has he got for surviving a harsh british winter if we cant find him?
