What species of tortoises?
I don't know exactly.
The Sosto Zoo news site on the rhino transfers:

I came across a rather peculiar video how the rhino transport moved forward. I never seen a rhino darted like this and dozing in paddock before being loaded onto a container. They might get a sedative or something, but not go under like this ...
