Day 37 of posting cute creatures we found on our field trip:
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/593f89d251dfea955140df6ce7f87cd2/e82a165fd18d7e18-93/s540x810/aff03b8ae870bd6a85d229e7f1859342c8468772.jpg)
Hermann’s tortoise (Testudo hermanni) is one of the most common European tortoises. It’s adorable. They feed on plants and usually live in woodlands. This dumbass was found in a swamp and nobody knows what the heck he was doing there. We also found two more:

These tortoises are so cute, ain’t they?

EDIT: Protože je želva zelenavá (Testudo hermanni) v ČR tak populární, •TADY• je o nich užitečný článek, ve kterém se dozvíte, jak od sebe rozeznat jednotlivé poddruhy :)
Jen taková malá otázka
Jak starý a velký na délku je kompost?
Máme taky doma už tříletou želvu zelenavou a ona ne a ne přestává růst.
Želva zelenavá žije klidně aj přes 80 let, takže roste pomalu a dlouho, zhruba do 10 let věku. :) Pokud jsou té vaší tři roky, má ještě sedm let, než odhalí svou finální anime formu. Samičky navíc rostou mnohem víc, než samečci a finální velikost záleží i na tom, který je poddruh.
K tvé otázce: Teď jsou mu necelé dva roky, jeho krunýřek má asi okolo 8 cm a hoduje jak nezazděný. Tudíž ačkoliv je Dýdžej nejmenší poddruh želvy zelenavé, čekám, že za další dva roky budeme shánět větší terárko. :D ♥

smiling? Posing nicely for his photo debut?
That’s a tad out of character for Shellrond. Just a tad.

Before the pandemic, studying at the lab, thinking about my future projects, my dissertation, my PhD....
I miss the lab so much.

Some more great pet photography from my wife, this time of our rescue Hermann’s tortoise, Gus!
Found throughout southern Europe, Testudo hermanni have been a heavyweight champion in the reptile community for decades. Rarely growing larger than 7½ inches, it’s important to remember that these adorable tortoises are a long-term commitment — the oldest known specimen from the UK lived over 130 years! 🐢
