Why would that be awesome? Where would you have it?? How big is your house?! Have you seen the size of their... how to put this delicately, waste?

I havn't seen the size of their waste. I'm on 16 acres. Think they would play nicely with horses? It would be something different from a dog or a cat, that is for sure. I guess I mean that it is awesome from that perspective. I'm not sure how friendly or loyal they would be. I'm not even sure I could buy one!

I'm guessing they are worth between 800K and 1M+ But I can't say I based that on much more than its size and what it would take to get something that big over here!

joker97: what's the difference between tortoise and turtle?

Tortoises are land dwelling, turtles water dwelling.
Tortoises can't swim

Is your last point based on experimentation? ;-)

LOL
Its a bit of an assumption. Something tells me they will be like a stone in the water

Its a simple test: chuck it in the water - if it sinks, its a tortoise (or a rock); if it floats, its a turtle (or a witch).

And why do witches float.....(all together now!)

Because a witch is made of wood?

Well on the swimming thing, I learned in school that ALL animals can swim.
