Care Sheets - Tortoise & Turtle

These care sheets/articles are being used with the kind permission of the Tortoise Trust.

Taking Care of Pet Tortoise and Baby Tortoise Care Basics were written by the Tortoise Trust.

There are many species of tortoises which all have differing requirements for feeding and housing. It is important to research these thoroughly before purchasing your tortoise.

The Tortoise Trust is the world's largest tortoise and turtle organization, with members in more than 26 countries. For almost 20 years the Tortoise Trust has consistently developed new methods of husbandry, and has actively campaigned for the conservation and protection of tortoises and turtles around the world. Below are a few more links to their tortoise care sheets.
