Yes, tortoises have scales on their legs and heads. These scales are made of keratin, the same material found in human fingernails, and provide protection for the tortoise.
"An Elegy for a Tortoise" by Christine Ortega uses personification to give human-like qualities to the tortoise, symbolism to represent deeper themes through the tortoise's death, and imagery to create vivid mental pictures of the tortoise's life and passing. The poem also employs repetition for emphasis, creating a rhythmic and mournful tone.
A female tortoise costs between $100 and $1000 depending on the species and where it is purchased. Because of their durability and anatomy, a tortoise can live longer than a human.
The shell of a tortoise is similar to the human rib cage. To be precise, the human rib cage has spaces between them which seperates 1 rib from the other. For a tortoise the ribs are merged together forming a conch aka shell. Hence if you ever tap hard on the shell of a tortoise a few times, you will see immediate movement in the form of the tortoise trying to run away from you. Hence if the shell of the Tortoise breaks it results in immediate death of the tortoise . Hence one should never try and remove the shell of the tortoise. Incase the shell cracks , immediately take your tortoise to a pet doc. Also bandage the crack like you would to a human wound. Ensure that the bandage is firm so as to hold the shell together.
My auntie actually has a tortoise of her own, and she has just a small patio with a rather big cupboard which he just loves to walk around in. But tortoise's don't really need a home like a human, just make sure there is nothing sharp on the ground.
Land tortoises travel slowly but can sometimes manage human walking speeds
