Tortoises are cold-blooded - just like other reptiles. They have a relatively poor diet - consisting of (mainly) green leafy vegetable matter in the wild. The poor nutrition, coupled with the fact the need to bask in sunlight to give them enough body heat to allow them to move, makes them sluggish. However - once warmed enough - they can actually move at a fairly rapid pace !
