Happy World Turtle Day! Meet Sammy the radiated tortoise. Sporting a striking star-shaped pattern of yellow streaks on its high-domed shell, the radiated tortoise is considered one of the world’s most beautiful tortoises. Unfortunately, its beauty makes the tortoise a target for the pet trade, which is one of the threats it faces in the wild. Melanie traveled to Madagascar last year to help save 10,000 critically endangered radiated tortoises that Turtle Survival Alliance (TSA) rescued from poachers. It was the largest tortoise confiscation in world history!
