There was only one Radiated Tortoise at the Fresno Chaffee Zoo. It was the first exhibit we saw when we got to the zoo. When we saw the Radiated Tortoise, it wasn't doing anything. Our Radiated Tortoise's shell didn't look like most of the pictures we saw, some of them were similar. The Tortoise seemed like it was old. The leopard tortoise looked more like our Radiated Tortoise, but there were some differences. We saw the giant tortoises at the zoo, they were actually moving, and they were very big, that explains where the got their names from. I wish there were more Radiated Tortoise. There were some animals that were abundant, and then there were some animals which there was none of them. Our tortoise does not like too much heat, and yet it spent most of its time in the Sun based on what we saw, but we only looked at our tortoise for about 4-5 minutes because we had to look at other animals to. Our research seemed accurate based on what we saw. The Radiated Tortoise also had a companion which was the Fennec Fox. 


     I really wish there were more tortoises at the zoo. There was also only one red footed tortoise, and they didn't even put that group's poster up. There were two African Spurred Tortoises. There were about 12 stingrays at the zoo. That is much more than 1-2 tortoises. There were like 30 flamingos at the zoo. There were only 2 Asian elephants. I wish there were more, and only one tiger!
