Scared the crap out of me when the tune started, must have had it on loud. Poor little fella must have felt sick going round and round. All in the name of entertainment!!!!!! Good tune though.

Is that any worse than what some of you put your tortoises through in their set ups... I saw one photo somewhere where the owner was torturing their tortoise with a stuffed tortoise to the point the tortoise felt the need to defend itself... now... that's mean.
