We've been keeping tabs on the expansion of Unleashed Animal Rescue, the non-profit started by Cleveland kidnapping survivor - Michelle Knight, who we now know as Lilly Rose Lee.


Last July, we featured the bunnies currently up for adoption. This week, we turn our attention to: Tortoises!


In her own words, Lee explains why these docile creatures can make great pets, as long as you know how to take care of them.


"Hello everybody! My name is Lilly Rose Lee. We're here at Unleashed Animal Rescue, and today we want to talk tortoises."


What's the difference between tortoises and turtles?


Tortoises have more rounded and domed shells where turtles have thinner, more water-dynamic shells. That's because tortoises spends most of their life on land, while turtles are adapted for life in water.


Also, if you look at their legs, Tortoises have club-like front legs. Their back legs resemble and elephant's. Tortoises are often larger and heavier. Those stocky back legs help them move around and carry the extra weight. Turtles, on the other hand, have webbed feet to make it easier for them to move through water.
