Chelonoidis becki?

@jay, what makes you think so this tortoise is a Chelonoidis becki?

GPZ - Brownsville Zoo for a good number of years has only maintained Chelonoidis microphyes species for breeding.

Um kifaru I think you mean jayjds2 rather than me. Personally I've no idea.

@jayjds2, a reminder. You have a name sake.

I just wondered why you would list a question mark for C. becki with the above GT?

They actually did have an adult becki for a while, but not anymore, and never on exhibit. Not sure when it was there, but now they have a juvenile that’s not on exhibit.

Regardless, I agree that the picture above is not C. becki - at the time, I knew very little about the Galapagos tortoises.
