My dorm---two tortoises I have two tortoises which one is male and another is female in a transparent fish tank. I put them on my desk with a desk lamp which can offer warming. They are the species come from Brazil, for this reason I have to worry about the chill here can kill them. The first day take them back from supermarket I picked some rocks and aqua-plants from a lake and built a lovely habitat, at least in my concept, for them, I am definitely a tortoise maniac. Back to my high-school time, I bought six tortoises from market and raised them at a miniascape which is consisted of a big fake mountain and many living aqua-plants. What surprised me was that these adorable pets chose to suicide by jumping from the top of the mountain. As the miniascape was laid out of the window box, these tortoises were directly flew away from the fifth floors. I still feel sorry for them today. So, I swear to the tortoises which accompanied me ago. I will try as I may to take care of these two tortoises I have now.
