The Hermann's tortoise (Testudo hermanni boettgeri) is a gentle, long-lived species – and one of our most beloved residents at Turtle Island.

With your symbolic adoption, you’re directly supporting our mission to care for and protect turtles in need.

For a donation of $150, you’ll receive:
✔ A personalized adoption certificate (PDF)
✔ A warm thank-you from our team – and from the turtles, too!

Your gift helps us provide food, veterinary care, and safe enclosures for our animals, and supports our broader conservation work across the globe.

Thank you for being part of the solution – and for giving turtles a future.
