Tortoise Missing from Germansville Home

A Germansville family is asking for help to find its lost tortoise

A pet tortoise wandered away from its home near the Germansville Fire Company, according to a post on Lehigh Valley Craigslist.

The tortoise:

  • Has an orange flag taped to her shell with black and polka dot duct tape
  • Loves sun and is very active in warm daylight
  • Has thorny looking front legs and her back feet has her claws painted different colors
  • Is about 7 inches high and 9 inches long
  • Makes a puffing sound to let you know she is there

Her family says the tortoise is friendly.
