It's fortunate it has a place to go.

Her behavior has changed over the last couple years. She’s unstoppable. Very similar to the one in this video.

I could use an attack tortoise or three on the farm. We have coyotes after the sheep and we have 2 Sicilian donkeys s that are the 'bad cops" > BUt they get bit up because the coyotes quickly learn the donkeys moves'. Mrs F doesnt want the donkies in harms way anymore.

A giant tortoise with attitude would be perfect.All Our pastures are broken up into 15 acre paddock areas +/- 2 acres each. Do they live through winters in which the ground freezes or do they hibernate?

Thought of alpacas? They are used to protect flocks from wild dogs here. Very fierce

@MMarciano,

Wow. That coming at me would frighten me as well.

@chai2,

She's being picked up on Saturday, same tortoise farm we sent the male to. They keep the males and females separated.

She will be better off, lots of space to roam around. Some animals you just can't keep.

We can always visit at times, she's going to outlive all of us so she's not going anywhere anytime soon.
