TopWill the foxes eat my tortoise?
This may happen if you leave the tortoise out at night. Very occasionally, foxes will use their incisors to prise the tortoise’s legs and head out of the shell and then eat them or, more often, will carry the tortoise off (particularly smaller tortoises), play with it, and then loose interest in it. Sadly, even if the tortoise is unharmed, you are unlikely to see it again, although it is worth checking with the local RSPCA, PDSA and Police to see if it has been found.
