Saddleback Tortoise

The Saddleback Tortoise, found in the Galapagos Islands, have dome-shaped shells that vary depending on their island habitat. They grow to incredible size, reaching weights of over 500 pounds, and can live for more than 100 years. These characters enjoy a slower pace, often taking their time to enjoy the journey. With this piece, Shaffer hopes to encourage individuals to embrace the little moments, reminding us to not take life so seriously.
