I live in East Central Florida and I have a Hermanns tort myself but I was sitting on the porch and saw this tortoise racing across our parking lot. I wanted to know if it is some native species to Florida or if someone lost their pet. I'm not great at guessing, but could it be a gopher tortoise, or did someone lose a sulcata or yellow foot? No Clue.



I didn't feel it was safe for this guy to be in the parking lot right next to a main road so I took him to a wooded area in the back of our condo complex and let him go on his merry way.
