My pet russian tortoise trying to climb a window screen. He is getting better at it every day. One day he might be a.....? But probably we should do something before he pokes a hole in the screen. ???????????????????? ????
Sometimes my pet Russian tortoise bites on things that resembles a fruit. In this case it was a yellow plastic hanger. After some futile tries, it is rewarded (?) with the real treat (a pear).
Many people think tortoises are docile. Wrong. The can be very responsive to your signs. In this video, he didn't see any food but knew it was lunch time.

This is probably the most unique Hermit crab display in the world!! They supplied transparent plastic shells for the Hermit crabs so that visitors can see inside the shell.
I have been to almost all the major aquariums in the US and Japan, but this display of Hermit crab at Himeji City aquarium (Japan) is probably one of a kind.
This is at a butterfly / insect museum. Some people attract butterflies more than others. My wife was a magnet for butterflies and the only thing my wife had on was sunscreen lotion.
