Is it dead?
Posted: 08/03/2015 by DrDebs

Hi,

I found a tortoise in my garden lying on its back with all its limbs out. I turned it over and it hasn't responded at all. How do I know if it is dead? I've been round to my neighbours and it doesn't belong to any of them so I've no idea where it came from or how long it has been out there.
Thanks,
Debbie

Take it into the house & if nothing happens when it has had time to warm up - expect the worst !
