It's
a tortoise actually and he has made his new home in a back corner
of the real estate office opposite my desk. A few weeks ago he was
brought in by one of the owners, so we could keep an eye on him
while they were on vacation. Moet used to be the household pet of
the Sweeneys who along with Tom Jackson own and operate Prudential
Nutshell Realty . The name "Moet" was undoubtedly chosen by Tim
Sweeney who also owns a local wine shop and has nothing to do with
the toroises choice in champagne. Now Moet enjoys being fed
constantly by every real estate agent that passes by. His diet is
made up of brightly colored fruits and vegetables with his
favorites being tomatoes and strawberries.
What's the difference between a tortoise and a
turtle?
According to the reptile guide found on Discovery.com, tortoises
live on land and eat a primarily vegetarian diet, and turtles live
in or near the water and eat a meat-based diet or a combination of
meat and vegetation. The way to physically identify the difference
is the height of the shell. Tortoises have a high domed shell where
turtles are lower and wider.
