Comment & Support The phrase "demonstrating the unique scales of the tortoise and the facial expression" didn't convince me. Turtles don't stick their tongues out like that or make happy faces. It is only like that because you captured it while it was eating. But regardless of its description, I will support for a good quality image. Zoo Fari 23:10, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
