Sucks becuase sadly all you guys are wrong, there are more tortoise kept as pets than there are in the wild. Take my Sulctatas for example, there's more sulcata in the US than in Africa. And we can't just dump captive bread tortoises into the wild to repopulate. Captive bread tortoise won't survive in the wild. Thank humans for decreasing many tortoise numbers, maybe one day we'll change our ways
People always talk about how dragons or ancient dinosaurs aren't real. This is literally one, right here, in real time. You best appreciate the existence of such a magnificent, humble, and calm animal.
I'm 15 and my family has a young sulcata tortoise. It boggles my mind that some day, my grandchildren will probably get the chance to enjoy his company. Tortoises are such great animals.
@@TheBinoyVudi sulcata is pretty common since they're prolific in captivity and sold in many countries worldwide. Not the best choice since they would require large enclosure.
Jinx198 Yes, I have 3 rescued Sulcata Tortoises they are huge no my oldest(23yrs) weighs in at 178lbs so beautiful@ They go to sleep in their dog houses every night so peaceful & good😊
I just got a tortoise and a bonsai tree for that very reason after my kids' dad died recently. I want to leave them and my future grandchildren things I've put love and care into that they can as well. ❤
its very interesting how it evolved. the galapagos tortoise has no natural predators, so all he has to do to survive is find enough food. so he walks slowly around the place eating what he can find, and just chilling.
I had to opportunity to go the the Galápagos Islands a few years ago. There were a lot of cool animals to see, but the tortoises were the most interesting!
Personally speaking, if I had to choose between eating grass or guava fruit, I'd pick the fruit, too. The closing scene cracks me up, reminds me of a garden in a retirement community.
I grew up with a pet tortoise and whenever I see these guys I think of my pet because they’re so similar looking, but then when you see how big they are they’re like real life cliffords 😭😭 so amazing
Humans: "Hey, sorry about those goats, guys. We got rid of them. Want some fruit?" Tortoises: *"Do you really think we'll forgive you just because you brought us some--* MMMMM THIS IS YUMMY"
These giant tortoises know how to live. I wish I had an island to live on all to myself. Where I can eat all the fruit I want and sleep for as long as these tortoises. That'll be the life.
I wish I was a a giant tortoise because you live for a long time, sleep for a long time and they can’t really die if they go into their shell. This *IS* my spirit animal 100%
tortoises and turtles are the most remarkable inspired animal on earth. I never heard people said negative things about this creature , like swearing as swine or dog do.

Weird thing to think about at 15 years old
Yall probably shoot it before then. We know yall all killers
I'm just asking because I don't know.. is it legal to own an exotic tortoise as a pet? I thought you can only own some common species
Tortoises are not pets.
@@TheBinoyVudi sulcata is pretty common since they're prolific in captivity and sold in many countries worldwide. Not the best choice since they would require large enclosure.
I just want to keep a tortoise.
100 year later it will be kept by my great grandchildren
That's exactly what I wanna do. Instead of a vase as a family heirloom, you have a fucking tortoise

Human brought goats to this island.. totally ridiculous.. of course they will devour every plants.. 😢
JuicyWatermelone the goats have to live too. It’s kill or be killed it the animal kingdom
@@hotdogkiller3905. But they're not native species to the Galapagos. Of course goats need to eat too, but not there.
Growth of Goats were natural on that Island. It was humans who eradicated them to save these tortoise

Giant tortoises hit the lottery. Lives ages, just chilling out, grazing, no need to chase prey or flee from predators.
In the tropics.. eating forbidden fruit and sleeping 16 hours..WOW.. that must be the life!!🐢👍😊
Why is the fruit forbidden?
Tortoise-300 meters an hour
Me walking to school- same

Haha that's good to know cuz if you don't, that means you were a socio/psychopath haha I yawned too!
"The sluggish tortoise adapted with lightning speed" - Let that one sink.
They can go an entire year without food or water? That’s just remarkable!!

They live there peacefully without any predators

Glad to see that the Tortoises are very healthy and get to eat lots of guavas, they are my favorite fruit to eat!
@@harryroper7971 Guavas are one of the most nutritious fruits you can eat. They are high in fiber and have more vitamin C than an orange.
