We have too many tortoises! View this email in your browser It's Adoption Time! WE MUST FIND HOMES FOR LOTS OF TORTOISES This Spring we have received a very large number of found and relinquished turtles and tortoises. We are asking everyone that has any interest at all to please setup a living space for a Sulcata, Russian, or Desert Tortoise and bring one home.



If you need more info about what is needed to setup a living space - read the care sheets. Tortoises need some room to roam, safety from dogs and other predators, and a "house" and maybe heat for colder nights. When you have a space ready, send a photo and an adoption form to this address: adoptions@sdturtle.org. If you have questions call Ginny at 760.738.8865 Example of a tortoise house one owner built, with a lid for inspection and cleaning. We have many Mohave Desert Tortoises, the California State Reptile. It is protected by law. One of many Sulcata Tortoises we have available for adoption right now. Russian tortoises are friendly and easy to care for. Have a pond? If you have a pond that is safe from predators, we have lots of pond turtles available right now. Call the number above to find out more.
