We found this tortoise on the side of the highway (we live in New Mexico, very hot climate, little water which makes me think it is a tortoise) and took it in because we didn't want to leave it there. We are currently trying to figure out the species. We have a big garden so keeping it would not be a problem and we are fully prepared to take full care of it (we are animal lovers and have plenty experience owning pets) anyways, the turtle or tortoise has red eyes, orange specks on the legs,and a striped? Shell. He/she is very fast, energetic, non hostile, and doesn't seem too skiddish or scared. I will attach photos to help identify. Thank you!!!!
