We couldn’t believe our eyes when we first saw this video; once we convinced ourselves that what we were seeing was real, all we could think was that we’ve been entirely too lax in dismissing reptiles as potential home-invasion threats. (We’re only marginally comforted by the fact that, should one of these creatures manage to break in and steal something from us, we could probably catch up with it.)

We’re deeply impressed by this crafty tortoise and its deft maneuvering of its front legs!
