About a mile from Steve’s old home, couple Josuhua Bennet-Johnson and Andrea Coughlan saw a little tortoise in their yard. Coughlan, who has experience working with wildlife, realized something was amiss. Russian tortoises in the wild are native to Central Asia (https://tortoise.org/archives/russ.html?ncid=edlinkushpmg00000313), so you don’t normally see them wandering around Massachusetts yards.The couple did some research, and eventually, social media led them Steve’s previous owners.
After seeing photos, Tsvetanova and her son were convinced it was Steve. He had the same face and the same markings on his underbelly. Tsvetanova said her son, who is now 16, cried with happiness when he heard the news.
The family’s friends in Waltham plan to reunite Steve with his old humans soon. We’re sure they’ll have a big shell-ebration.
