But, did you know that only one type of Greek tortoise is found in portions of Greece?

I’m reality, these tortoises come from places like Southeast Asia, North Africa and the Middle East. Learn about a few distinct Greek tortoise subspecies along with some interesting facts in this fun introduction!
