This morning, these two Sulcata tortoises were surrendered by a family that was given them as a gift a few weeks ago.
This is what happens when animals are given as gifts without the receiver being prepared. Not only did these animals sit in a box without UVB lighting for a couple weeks, but now the new owners have finally realized that this is not something they can easily take care of and made the decision to surrender them to the rescue. They were charged a Surrender fee and now their free gift has cost them money in order to find it proper home.
Please do not give animals as gifts unless the person has properly researched and prepared for that specific animal. Whether it be something like a cat, dog, hamster rabbit, or reptile, animals are not gifts that can be easily given.

In 2015, scientists made an amazing discovery in the mountains of Costa Rica: a new species of glass frog with bulging white eyes that looked so much like a beloved character, it was nicknamed the real-life Kermit the Frog.

Its most incredible feature is its translucent belly, which allows its internal organs to be seen right through its skin— a stunning display of nature's design.

The lead researcher, Brian Kubicki, gave it the official name Hyalinobatrachium dianae, a touching tribute in honor of his mother, Janet Diane Kubicki.
