A friend of mine is looking to place a male desert tortoise. She would like someone nearby (So Cal - she is in Chino) so she can see where he would be going. If anyone local is interested, please pm or email me. Thank you!
She thinks he is around 25 - captive bred. I'm not sure why she is looking for a home for him. She does rabbit rescue and often gets tortoise rescues in as well.
I'm sorry - I really don't have the answers to those questions, but I would be happy to give you her email address and you can ask her. My guess is that someone dropped him off there. I usually take in the smaller tortoises, but I don't have room for anymore DTs.
LOL...I have been known to ask alot of questions, I apologize Yes, if you do not mind pm'g me the persons email I could ask them . I am not able to take on anymore at present but I know of someone who may be looking to host one..
