No it is you who are 100% Wrong. Sulcatas have never evolved the need or ability to hibernate during winter. It gets too cold in California to stay outside year round too; and they are going into dens or establish enclosures to keep warm. Talk to your expert about the differences in brumation; aestivation; and hiberantion. Outwardly similar behavior; but under completely different conditions. God save me from the experts....a parrot is an exotic; so is a tiger; but no where near a tortoise. Show me just one current scientific paper that indicates that sulcatas can hibernate. It just doesn't happen. Passing out bad information like this is a death sentence to sulcata who's owner might actually believe itOk first Of all people who say Sulcata tortoises cannot hibernate are 100% WRONG!
Not only can they hibernate some in fact do! Please don’t give information unless you know all the facts. I work with an expert exotic animal vet and I have many Sulcata tortoise’s and in fact one of my Sulcata tortoise hibernates every entire year and we live in sunny California. And every year come spring he comes out very happy and healthy and goes back in every winter. We work with Sulcatas all day everyday and a big chunk of them hibernate and a lot slow down and some don’t hibernate at all. But stop Giving people false information that they cannot hibernate because that is a lie.
LOL!It would seem they have moved on. Let’s hope that they stop “teaching?” tortoise owners and instead try wood work.
Why would you want to ruin a bunch of perfectly good wood? I was thinking they could go into self-tattooing...It would seem they have moved on. Let’s hope that they stop “teaching?” tortoise owners and instead try wood work.
My sister was supervising some "challenged" youths at a site. One of them was nicknamed Yllib. He had tattooed his own name, Billy, on his forehead while looking in a mirror.Why would you want to ruin a bunch of perfectly good wood? I was thinking they could go into self-tattooing...
