Coyote Peterson Meets a Big Friendly Tortoise


In the latest episode of his “Breaking Trail” nature series, animal expert and adventurer Coyote Peterson makes friends with a veggie-loving giant Galapagos tortoise, named Buckshot, and explains the difference between turtles and tortoises, while visiting South Florida.

“Buckshot tips the scales at around 140lbs and is nearly 25 years old. The crazy thing is she’s not even half grown so she is eating constantly…seriously, don’t let this tortoise near your salad bar!”
