What is a herbivore tortoise?
The majority of tortoises are herbivores, with some species eating largely grasses, and others eating mainly broadleaved plants, but there are a few species that are omnivorous (such as red-footed and yellow-footed tortoises), and these species will also eat insects, worms, and carrion. Some species of herbivorous tortoises include the Galapagos tortoise, the Aldabra tortoise, the African Spur-thigh tortoise, the Greek tortoise, and the Hermann's tortoise. Tortoises are reptiles, part of the order Chelonia, along with turtles. Tortoises are terrestrial (they live on land), while turtles may be terrestrial, semi-aquatic, or aquatic. The majority of turtles are omnivorous, with some being carnivorous. Tortoises generally have rounded feet with strong claws, while turtles have broader feet that are webbed or partially webbed. (Sea turtles, of course, have flippers).
