On this note we’ll also be exploring the tragedy of species extinction, and how and why this happened. We’ll also be learning about the conservation needs of the tortoise along the way, and the conservation status of each breed mentioned will be listed. We spend some time exploring some of the key species of tortoise, both domestic and wild, taking a closer look at the temperaments and defining features of those which make great pets, and exploring some of the fascinating history of those best observed from afar.
