: I would like to keep a russian tortoise in New Jersey. I know they are no sold in NJ, does anybody know where I can buy one around Tri-State area? NY, CT, PA is fine.

: Also, any words of wisdom as far as keeping a tortoise in NJ - am I going to have hard time if it gets sick and no vets will treat it?

Personally, I'd order one from NERD, they have a link to this site, I think their animals are really good, and they are close enough to jersey to get one overnight. If you get one from a pet store, find out where they got it, a lot are illegaly imported. I can't help you with a vet, but if you purchase a healthy animal, it is easy to keep them that way, the russians are very hardy.
