tortoise in corrina, corrina

[marcy4hope]

okay, i'm curious, what kind of tortoise is in this clip from the movie corrina, corrina? you have to go to minute 5:30 to watch the part with the tortoise. it's been one of my fave movies for years. when i picked the name louis armstrong for my sulcata tortoise, i always had in the back of my mind that if "he" was really a "she", then i'd just change "his" name to lois, after the tortoise in this movie. "he's" only 18 months now, but so far looks like "he" could actually be a "she", so i'm preparing myself for lois instead of louis. lol i'm curious as to what type of tortoise this is, just for fun? i can't see it well enough in the clip and don't know my breeds well enough to tell.

I agree with Yvonne. Can't tell for sure on my little screen though.

If you watch the credits and tell me who the animal trainer was, I might know them and can verify.

lol. i'll do that tom. i've been wanting to watch that movie again, so this'll give me an excuse to do it. in fact, the credits maybe would even tell us what species "she"?
