Hermes and Mud
We do “Show and Tell” with two tortoises, Hermes and Mud. Hermes and Mud have been at the American Museum of Natural History for 13 years. These were the two last ones out of their litter. One had an underslung jaw and the other one, his back had been broken so his shell was grown kind of funny.
