The patch above his head looks like a ring of concentric turtles.

That man is an insult to turtles!

Thank you for sharing his cuteness with all.
Hi Boomer! You're a cutie!
Is he a turtle or a tortoise? He's magnificent either way! :D
All tortoises are turtles, but not all turtles are tortoises! In my dialect of English, “land turtle” and “sea turtle” are the ways to differentiate.
He’s a tuuuuurrrrtle!
Sometimes I think I could use a shell like that.
Great pic, thanks
This is Boomer, he’s a turtle with a strong shell and feets for marching, and he’s big enough that he can be held like a big burger. He lives at the Oregon Zoo, and his job is to be a turtle. 🐢🐢🐢
Now THAT is a bloody-well awesome description. Are you ZeFrank?

Nicely turtled! Or tortoised. Whichever
