If you have a very wide and varied garden or landscape, with plants ranging from fruit to flowers. Then you might want to consider getting a tortoise. I’ve been living next door to a lady who has one and I didn’t even know it. I’d never seen her back yard and the one time I actually took a look over the fence I saw flowers of all kind and even fruits apples, oranges, and lemons all over the place. It was beautiful, then out of nowhere there was this huge rock that was moving! It caught me completely off guard so I told the owner of the house that she had a moving rock in her backyard, she then took to her backyard and showed me that it wasn’t in fact a rock but a tortoise she said it was about 103 years old and that it was a lot of help with her garden. She said that he ate any fruit that fell off the trees and fertilized the grass with his waste. Aparently it must have been a lot of help. So if you love your garden, but also want a pet that won’t destroy your green palace then you should really think about getting a tortoise.
