It is dark enough to be a Red-necked Pond Turtle, just looks peculiar out of water and dry. The feet also look like terrestrial species! It is certainly not Horsefield's, Hermann's or Egyptian.
Out of the species on Whipsnade's stocklist, yellow-footed tortoise fits closest, however I would have expected to at least faintly see the yellow centers to the scutes on the carapace. Puzzling.
Im pretty sure thats an relatively old adult Greek spur thigh Tortoise (Testudo graeca). i have a 75 year old of the same species and its almost identical.
