HERMANN’S, GREEK, MARGINATED, RUSSIAN & EGYPTIAN TORTOISES (Who is Who?)

Properly identifying tortoise species is no easy task. When it comes to genuses or groups where the included species are similar in appearance, it can be a nightmare. The European or Mediterranean tortoises of the genus Testudo are a prime example of a puzzling family of tortoises. Being the most popular group of tortoises in the world makes them on the forefront of most keepers' minds. Look no further than this video if you'd like a clear window into how to accurately tell the difference between Hermann's, Greek, Marginated, Egyptian and Russian tortoises!
