So if you have seen them in person, do you know what species they are or not? Is the sister also very light in color? Years ago, I had a female sulcata which had almost the same light coloration, and I am leaning toward the tortoise being a Spurred Tortoise.

He was talking about the giant YF in the picture that Mike Taylor posted, not the picture the original poster showed.

OOPS! I didn't even see that photo before I posted. Sorry for any confusion.

Is that you with the yellow foot ? I pulled that from a website.

While I have been photographed with that denticulata before, that is not me in that photo.

Super cool to interact with them in person, by the way. I have hand-fed and petted both of the giants there. Jeff (who supervises that area) is a great guy to talk to.
