Hi! Today a friend of a friend of a friend was going to get rid of her tortoise. My son wanted one for his birthday so we agreed to rescue him. He was kept for 5 years in a 20 gallon high tank, no light, and fed mostly fruit. Petsmart lady says he's in really bad shape, malnourished, with soft spots and a crack in his shell. We bought him a 40 gallon long and a bunch of supplies. Going to whole foods tomorrow to buy dandelion leaves. But we have no idea what he is. He doesn't look like anything online. Thoughts? What is he? Want to get a book and learn more.
