Tortoise

Our tortoise is called Tilly, he is a Sulcata tortoise which means he is a member of the third largest species in the world, only the Galapagos and Aldabra tortoise are bigger!

Sulcatas are native to the Sahara desert in Africa so they like to live in warm conditions.  Tilly lives in the Petting Barn where he has his own fully insulated and heated enclosure. When the weather is fine we make sure Tilly has lots of time in the sunshine which is really important for him to develop a strong and healthy shell.
