    This is a very old, very deformed Red-Foot Tortoise, that was rescued last year and transported across the US to get to her. He was kept in pitiful captive conditions for 17 years, and as a result, is unbelieveable deformed. He had no use of his back legs when she got him, but now his back legs are working wonderfully and he gets around great. He has such an amazing personality too.

    Thank you for sharing all the turtle pictures & stories. It is great they have a new safe home & are so well cared for. I enjoy watching turtles in the wild in the local ponds & marshes.

    Great pictures! That poor old guy, the last one you show, has been through so much, it must be great to see him thriving at last!

    I have never seen a Diamondback terrapin, such a pretty turtle! Glad to know all these guys are happy and safe!
