A Tortoise Can Come When Called!
#215: Dr. Doug gives an overview of tortoises and how they express the human-animal bond --- loving to have their shell rubbed, a scratch under the chin, and can even learn their name and come when called (as his own tortoise does in his Key West yard.) There are thousands of tortoise species, but because they keep growing until the day they die, do your homework: a tortoise that starts out the size of a quarter can grow to 250 lbs and live for 80 or more years.
