African Spurred Tortoise

Friday, July 15th, 2011


So much so that before the Chaco was officially described as Testudo chilensis, it was thought by some to be T. sulcata. Distinguishing male from female can be difficult. There is no distinctive difference until the tortoises are fully matured, and even then it can be difficult. The males tend to be smaller in adult size with slightly more elongate shells. In males, the plastron is usually concaved, and the tail is also usually longer. The anal scutes of the female normally tend to form a “U” shape where the anal scutes of the male will, for the most part, form a “V” in shape. All of these distinguishing characteristics usually become more pronounced as tortoises become more mature.

Chacos can be found almost throughout the entire range of what is known as the Gran Chaco (hence their common name). This is an area that extends from southern Bolivia. The Gran Chaco is sometimes described as the last frontier because of its large range and sparse human population. It is very similar to the habitat and conditions found in the American Southwest. The area is typified by grass plains with low-lying trees and shrubs. It is very dry for the most part with sporadic rainfall that is not seasonal, averaging about 12 inches a year. Temperatures are extreme, but they generally do not drop below freezing.

Their sharp claws are also formidable weapons and can inflict deep, painful welts. Although they climb in low-lying brush they are principally ground-dwelling lizards and branches and perches are not necessary.

Tegus are diurnal, and temperatures at 85 degrees to 90 degrees F during daytime and 70 degrees to 75 degrees F at night  are preferred.

Temperate and Subtropical Zones

Saturday, February 19th, 2011


Normally, winter day temperatures average from 55 to 60 degrees F (13-16 C), while night temperatures average from 35 to 45 degrees F (2-8 C).

Summer months usually average from 75 to 80 degrees F (24-27 C) during the day, and nightime lows are ordinarily in the high 50s to the low 70s F (15-22 C). Extreme daytime highs can reach 110 F (43 C). Average summer humidity is approximately 70% to 80%. Average annual precipitation is 30 to 65 inches (76-165 cm).

Almost all of the southeastern United States below the border of Virginia and North Carolina is encompassed by a subtropical climate. This subtropical zone, like the temperate zone of the United States, reaches west to approximately 100 W longitude (extreme southern Florida is excluded from this climatic zone). Most of the West Coast of the United States has a subtropical climate, and much of southern Europe is subject to a subtropical climate that is sometimes referred to as a Mediterranean climate. Other areas with subtropical climate that are not as extensive can be found in extreme northern and southern Africa as well as eastern and southern Australia. In South America subtropical zones are located in part of Southern Brazil, a section of northeastern Argentina, and all of Uruguay.

Temperate and Subtropical Zones part 4

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009


Plants that are most suited to the temperate/subtropical terrarium require a relative humidity factor of approximately 50% to 60%.  The spider plant Chlorophytum, is a hardy plant that requires full sun; this plant might do well in a temperate/subtropical environment. Other possible candidates include Cordyline, Setcreasea, and Yucca plants. These are all plants that require full sun. Yucca has hazardous points at the ends of its leaves. Nevertheless, this plant makes a beautiful appearance in just about any location. Another drawback to yuccas is their inclination to demand cool temperatures during the winter months.

Stenotaphrum (St. Augustine’s grass), which also requires full sun, might be grown successfully in the temperate/subtropical habitat. Dracaena and Ficus (fig) plants, which need plenty of light, should not be exposed.
