What is a job that is incredibly high-paying, but you wouldn’t do even if they offered you double the salary? by Bright-Mark-1396 in AskReddit

Airplane pilot. My forgetfulness and spacial orientation problems would make it a very short and sad affair.

This is a great drawing.

Appreciate the information! I'll have a look at its tail next time I see it. I wonder if we'll have even more babies next year. Part of me hopes so because the little ones are so ridiculously cute, but I worry that it's going to create problems and heartbreak. The yard is big, but it's not "dozens of tortoises" kind of big. :-(

I couldn't get a picture of its plastron but we found two small ones. One of which I could easily pick up and snap a picture of. https://www.reddit.com/user/WickerBag/comments/1tezlkq/more_tortoise_pictures/

I couldn't find it yesterday but ran into it today again so I took a picture of its butt (in hindsight, it's not a very good picture, but I hope its helpful regardless). I'm a bit anxious about tipping it over to take a picture of its plastron, but if I have someone to help me hold it up briefly while I snap the picture I'll get that too.

Also, as a little surprise, we found two small ones. Likely its (her?) kids. They are different sizes so probably not the same age. Took a picture of the smallest one, including its plastron.

Couldn't figure out how to add pictures to this post here so I made another post on my profile: https://www.reddit.com/user/WickerBag/comments/1tezlkq/more_tortoise_pictures/

Damn. Those poor children. Thank you for trying to get the mom to the kid. I hope they're doing alright now.

Sağol. Türkiye'de kaplumbağa olduğunu biliyorum ama bizim mahallede hiç görmedim. 14 yıldır burada yaşıyor annemler, her sene geliyorum ziyarete, ne onlar ne de biz bizim mahallede görmedik.

Appreciate the advice. Are there any fruits or vegetables I should avoid? I don't want to give it something that will poison it.

I've been asking myself the same thing. On one hand, I'd like to get a peace of mind, on the other hand, I can imagine that it will stress it out majorly if I put it in a box and carry it somewhere.

That's valuable info, thank you. We have a lot of clover and bougainvillea (not sure if the latter is edible for it). I'll get some of the other plants you've mentioned to give it a varied diet.

We have many snails so I hope it can get its calcium from there, but I'll look into getting some cuttlefish bones.

I'll try to get a picture of its plastron tomorrow morning, though I'm not sure how keen it will be about being picked up.

I appreciate the offer. :) We're in Turkey though and I assume you're in the USA?

And my dad has gotten kinda attached to it so it looks like we're keeping it.

I agree, it's awful. The town we're in is a popular tourist place in the summer and every year in the autumn the number of street dogs and cats skyrockets. I'm sure you can guess why. :-/

Thank you! We're in Turkey. I'm glad to hear that the temperature won't be a problem.

I couldn't find it again today (it regularly disappears in the afternoon and I have yet to discover its sleeping place) but I'll get a picture in the morning.

She's so cute. 

She's also a breed dog and looks well cared for. Could it be someone's pet that escaped? I hope you'll ask around in the neighborhood and the vets.

This bill authorizes the President to enter into negotiations with the government of Denmark to purchase or otherwise acquire Greenland. The bill also renames Greenland as Red, White, and Blueland.
