Galapagos tortoises scrambling back to their new home ZSL London Zoo A new exhibition was announced.
After deciding to move Sisters Dolly, Sister Polly, and Sister Priscilla to a new shelter in the complex, the zookeeper chose to let them walk instead of a van.
The three competed against each other in the game and headed to the venue under the guidance of bright signs, with a special suitcase on hand, in case any of them chose to take a detour.
The game was very tight. Polly fell behind at the beginning and finally crossed the finish line at 1 hour and 9 minutes-two minutes ahead of her closest opponent, Priscilla.
The Dolly brothers and sisters were initially in the lead, but too much rest on the route caused her to fall behind by 1 hour and 21 minutes.
Dr. Chris Michaels, head of the zoo’s herpetology team, said: “If needed, we make sure to have a lot of delicious cucumbers, carrots and watermelons as additional encouragement.”
Each tortoise is guided by a breeder who engraves the turtle’s name on a specially designed ZSL shirt.
ZSL London Zoo is opening Giants During the exhibition in the Galapagos Islands on October 9, the public will be transported to the famous islands.
