In the past two weeks, I've taken in two rescues. One was my little tort, Filbert. The other is this guy...

King Koopa! I took him in after a neighbor found him wandering around our neighborhood. We haven't been able to locate his owner, and we feel he was dumped. He is very sweet and not agressive at all.

beautiful. What kind of setup are you keeping him in?

We are temporarily keeping him in my old iguana habitat, which is 6 feet tall. But Koopa is over 5 feet, so we decided to build him a larger habitat. We have an enclosed lanai, around our pool, with lots of large plants that he can lounge on. He likes to sun himself out there.

My neighbor put out notices everywhere trying to find his owner. She wanted to make sure if someone was looking for him, they would find him. But no luck. It is sad to think someone dumped him. But it happens a lot down here in Florida. People dump their exotics when they get too big.:(

The King is very COOL :cool: That is so sad, the thought of him just being dumped off someplace.
