Do A Little Dance


Get down tonight! What is this? CoCo is our large male African Spurred Thigh Tortoise, A.K.A. Sulcata. He moves around the farm eating grass like a cow. He's actually very efficient to mow down the grass. This one time we caught him doing this little dance.

What is your guess?

  • Mating Dance
  • Itchy Belly
  • Dancing for Fun

Tenderizing the tougher bits of vegetation. I believe the proper term is 'muddling'.

;~P

Interesting. I never would have thought of that as an option. :)

Probably totally wrong, too, but it seemed 'reasonable'. Lol!

All guesses are worth something LOL

I will go with this...

He's definitely busting a move! :D

  • Workout - Leg Day

Look like he was over thistles so I want to say scratching :)

Cute! My guess is Itchy Belly.

Thanks for sharing.
