| Telling the age of a tortoise
is a bit like telling the age of a horse. It needs an expert! It's an inexact
science. You can't tell from the number of rings, like a tree ring. They
vary. You also need to know the species. The Tortoise Trust can probably
get the age plus or minus a few years. Take a clear photo of Moses, against
a foot ruler, to give the scale. Send this, plus an s.a.e. for reply and
a donation if you feel like it, to the Tortoise Trust, BM Tortoise, London
WC1N 3XX. |
