I know what you mean about the loony part. In 1993 I think it was I took a turtle to the vet & got flack from a neighbor over that for years. We've outlasted him now though, he's moved away & we haven't. There is nothing loony about taking them in & helping them.
We adopted our sulcata tortoise 3 years ago after she'd been dumped out in the country then some stupid teenaged boys shot her 3 times with a .22 caliber rifle. People thought we were nuts for keeping her but what better place can she be in? It's the desert, yeah she's getting big but she has a half acre of Bermuda grass to graze.. everything she needs is here. If we hadn't taken her she'd be dead now.
Too many people just can't seem to grasp that animal's lives have meaning & they are important too, even a little turtle.
I think those who don't see that are missing out big time.
