Hello All,
We have an 8 year old 50 pound African Spurred Tortoise. He is eating all my native plants and I don't want him to. I am to the point where I am thinking of giving him to someone else just so he doesn't tear up my yard. In the past we have made enclosures for him, but he's so strong that he seems to plough through them, or I am worried he will flip himself or harm himself trying to get out of them. Any advice about how to make a safe fence that will contain him? He currently has the run of 1/2 acre. Thanks in advance for advice.
