it) and the digital tinting added in 2007.

Information about the Leopard Tortoise:
The Leopard Tortoise is a large tortoise native to the
savannas of Africa. It ranges from Sudan to the southern
Cape. It is a grazing species of chelonian that can generally
be found in semi-arid and grassland areas. It will also
feed on other plants, including prickly pear cactus and
other succulents. Due to the attractive pattern on it's
shell and ease of care this tortoise is often kept as a
pet. Thanks to captive breeding programs there is less demand
for species caught in the wild, and in areas of Africa where
their numbers were dwindling they are now starting to recover.
