There's something about watching tortoises that makes me profoundly happy, ever since I was a little kid. I'll get one eventually, maybe not a giant one though haha.

7:55 This is why I occasionally let my Tortoise roam outside of his enclosure (back in the day, nowadays I can keep him outside for most of the day). I think it's important that they also get to walk around on even terrain and harder terrain rather than the soft coco coir/whatever

I'm fairly new to the world of Tortoises and turtles but it just amazes me how beautiful and intelligent they are. I'm drawn to their eyes and there is something about them, that melts my heart.🥰💜. I could watch videos like these for hours !!! At least 15 of my playlist videos, are of turtles and Tortoises ; especially when they're eating and you hear the crunching of them enjoying their food.❤
