An African spur-thighed tortoise can survive without water for several months, typically around 6 months, depending on environmental conditions and the tortoise's overall health. These tortoises are well-adapted to arid environments and can conserve water effectively. However, prolonged periods without water can lead to dehydration and health issues, so it's essential to provide them with access to water regularly.
