Thank you for the links! The pictures where great.
Were you interested in a small or large tort?

Actually I'm not sure yet. I need to do some research on different species but I'm going to be looking for a tort on the smaller side. Thanks for your help. :)

: The speckled padloper (Homopus s. signatus) is the smallest of the Padloper tortoises. And the smallest tortoise in the world. To see a photo go to this web site, then click on information.

: The largest tortoises are the Galapagos tortoises, photos at the following web site, click on the photos to enlarge:

: Neither the padlopers or galapagos are common in captivity.
: There are many species of tortoise that vary greatly in size between these two species.
