it's a Father Ted/Dougal moment, small/far away
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vh5kZ4uIUC0This was at Fife Animal Park and the sign said Hermann Tortoise and no mention of Sulcata but I reckoned it must be that or Aldabra |

It's hard to tell on one visit but I wouldn't be telling anyone to rush up there for a day out. There was a horsfield in an unlit tiny fish tank but it may have been ill or something I don't know

you would think there would be more info about in places like that about what is in enclosures and perhaps why, and that kind of thing doesn't take long to do... but perhaps I am just being picky! May have to go have a look next time I am up that way though...

it was only £8 each to get in but there's not a lot at it really. I think the torts in this pic had access to outside but not sure. Kids might be impressed with it
