I am looking for either a russian or leopard tortoise, but I am having a darn hard time finding them in Canada. Can anyone help me locate one of these guys.

thanks all

have you been to any of the misssuaga reptile expo, that is your best chance IMO

You will probably get a Leopard at the Miss. Expo but more than likely not a Russian. You have to get there first thing in the a.m. as soon as they open and head over to Port Credit Reptiles and they will probably have one or two. They seem to go very fast.

GRRRR NOOO Russians in Ontario!!!
Do you have any?
I have a Male, and a friend has another Male, we are desperatly seeking a female to mate, to help bring more to this Country!
Since 1971 it has been illegal to import any tortoise to Canada .

But on kijiji I often see Leopards offered as CB Babies, around $300

There are a lot of tortoises in Canada. Have you ever went to a reptile show, there are 3 or 4 per year and There is some big stores in Toronto that sells tortoises.
I bought mine in Montreal.

Put your name in at Port Credit Pets. They often have tortoises coming in.
They actually had a Leopard a few weeks ago, but I think it's gone
now since they don't have it listed on their site.
Great people to work with and reliable shipping if you have to go that route.
