Turtle or Tortoise

Tortoise breed?
I noticed something a little peculiar about our friend Mr. Turtle... He looks an awful lot like a Mohave Desert Tortoise, native to the Southwestern US, not the Sulcata breed native to Africa (note the flattened spines on his legs - Sulcata's are a lot more prominent).
I'm hardly an expert though, so I'm not positive on this. He could be something else entirely! Is there anyone able to clarify what kind he is?--Eris (talk) 18:47, 25 November 2008 (EST)

- Do you think that between Mr Muggles, Turtle (should be his name since thats what Matt calls him) and Mohinder the lizard, they could rule the Heroes Universe?--Mc hammark 11:27, 4 May 2009 (EDT)
