This is Boomer, he’s a turtle with a strong shell and feets for marching, and he’s big enough that he can be held like a big burger. He lives at the Oregon Zoo, and his job is to be a turtle. 🐢🐢🐢
Fun fact: Like OP’s turtle, this kid was also from Portland. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/i-like-turtles
Is he a turtle or a tortoise? He's magnificent either way! :D
All tortoises are turtles, but not all turtles are tortoises! In my dialect of English, “land turtle” and “sea turtle” are the ways to differentiate.
He’s a tuuuuurrrrtle!
I, for one, think he's turtle-y enough for the turtle club.
Yes
Little dude is great at his job!!😍

Anything except metric!
Boomer from the top!
Hi Boomer! You're a cutie!
Good job, Boomer!
Nicely turtled! Or tortoised. Whichever
Sometimes I think I could use a shell like that.
Great pic, thanks
feel free to post this awsome turtle
What amazing patterns and textures!
The patch above his head looks like a ring of concentric turtles.
Turtle: Go post yourself, you ugly ass wearing grassjumper!
