Heh, I have seen African Spurred turtles doing the same thing in kiddie pools and other tortoises do the same thing in clear rubbermaids. The African Spurred can see over the lip of the kiddie pools, so that's why...
It just that they don't like being constrained if they know it.
Hey, guys, I definetly agree that tortoises shouldn't be kept in glass tank, and I know that. But my question was, why do they do it?
i read recently that torts always have the grass is greener on the other side syndrome,they are wonderer's and thats what they want to do,evidently really badly,lol.Makes since i think.
My spurred thigh is to big for a tank now but when he was a baby he used to try to dig his way out
it helps if you put mirror tint (that is a last option on inside of tank) but you cannot tint whole tank you half to black out half and put the heat lamp on that side so he/she does not think they can dig through
