    That would be a Cape Speckled Tortoise. It is a super fun job, even though its only a volunteer job.

    What a great volunteer job. I wish there were one like that around here for me to do!

    For a hard snake to take a picture of, that photo of the green mamba sure is good. What a looker! I like the shadows on its back scales.

    Thanks for the eye candy! Lovin' it!
