I believe that is a leopard tortoise. The others will chim in tho. Check out the tortoise specific area and go to the leopard tort area. Looks just like them.

It is a leopard. It's looking dry to me. They need a high humidity. Please read the threads below in my post for proper housing. The sulcata threads will apply also.

Leopard (with some South African blood?)

A very warm welcome to the forum to you and your cute leopard tort!

Please read the care sheets as well as the different thread, and ask ANY question, when in doubt. Good luck!

That is a leopard tortoise.

Where are you?

Here is some current care info:

I typed this up for sulcatas, but the info applies to your leopard as well.
