Tortoises get a bad rap because some people breed them for fighting turtles. I just wish people understood that they can be really loving animals. Title: Re: Police officer shoots 'aggressive' tortoise dead Post by: JohnnyBTCSeed on July 10, 2014, 03:59:01 AM Shit, I'd be scared too!!

I just wish people understood that they can be really loving animals. Nah man, that's awful! Turtles are such peace-loving creatures! I once had a turtle, such a cutey-patootey! I fed it all kinds of salad and grasses. They couldn't hurt anyone! But one day it ran away. I couldn't find it, it was just too fast :( Title: Re: Police officer shoots 'aggressive' tortoise dead Post by: beetcoin on July 22, 2014, 09:01:41 PM what will they claim, that the tortoise was moving too fast towards them?

Those things are VERY fast. Here is actual video from another close encounter... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyUmGHdK9e8 Title: Re: Police officer shoots 'aggressive' tortoise dead Post by: Hazir on July 22, 2014, 11:30:03 PM So maybe they are super fast, but I NEVER heard about turtle who killed a man. And I doubt that policeman was in danger so grave he had to shoot it. But it is overall minor problem in times when people are dying like nothing happened in various places of the world.

I think the police officer was simply being overzealous Title: Re: Police officer shoots 'aggressive' tortoise dead Post by: beetcoin on July 22, 2014, 11:50:30 PM what will they claim, that the tortoise was moving too fast towards them?

Land speed calculation from that video?
Title: Re: Police officer shoots 'aggressive' tortoise dead Post by: gmx95 on July 23, 2014, 01:21:41 AM This is perhaps the funniest story I've read so far today :-)
Title: Re: Police officer shoots 'aggressive' tortoise dead Post by: Vod on July 23, 2014, 01:26:11 AM Touche. Land speed calculation from that video? I'd assume 88 mph, since the tortoise didn't emerge from the other side, only a thin trail of flames...
