Asia Minor tortoise
Testudo graeca ibera
The Asia Minor tortoise is a sub-species of the spur-thighed tortoise. The colours of these animals range from dark to golden orange. Colourful specimens are popular as pets, which might threaten the population in the wild. Thanks to its colouring, the tortoise blends exceptionally well into the environments of its native region.
