Frank the Tank needs a home. - Catherine - 10-18-2023

What looked like a rock in a farmer's field, started moving. It turned out to be a young Sulcata Tortoise. He is 16 kilos now. When he grows up he will be 90 kilos. He has some minor health issues, but he is doing well. His foster parent called him Frank the Tank. As an adult he will be a tank.
He can also live over 100 years. They are looking for a permanent home with an experienced reptile person.

Wow, a Sulcata. I would love to foster Frank for a while. I wonder how he ended up outside. Did he get lost accidentally or was he abandoned.
There would be no need to abandon a Sulcata Tortoise. There are lots of people who will want him. They would need a big place and reptile experience. There are lots of people like that.  They have already had inquiries. They just have to choose the family that is able to meet his needs...for the next 100 years.
