Griechische Landschildkröten

Unknown

Currently, a male Greek land tortoise is in our animal shelter. These animals are exclusively housed under a tolerance agreement with the lower nature conservation authority and after a thorough assessment. We are seeking an appropriate new home in a spacious outdoor enclosure for the tortoises. Potential new owners should be aware that land tortoises can reach a very advanced age.

Derzeit befindet sich eine männliche griechische Landschildkröte in unserem Tierheim. Diese Tiere werden ausschließlich unter einer Duldungsvereinbarung der unteren Naturschutzbehörde und nach einer gründlichen Vorkontrolle durch das Tierheim an sachkundige Halter vermittelt. Wir suchen für die Schildkröten ein artgerechtes neues Zuhause in einem geräumigen Außengehege. Die potenziellen neuen Halter sollten sich darüber im Klaren sein, dass Landschildkröten ein sehr hohes Alter erreichen können.

About Griechische Landschildkröten

What life with Griechische Landschildkröten looks like

Griechische Landschildkröten is a adult animal waiting at Tierheim Braunschweig in Braunschweig.

Every animal has their own temperament and history. The shelter knows Griechische Landschildkröten far better than any listing can convey — ask about daily routine, ideal household, and what kind of adopter they're hoping for.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Griechische Landschildkröten, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Griechische Landschildkröten?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Braunschweig handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Griechische Landschildkröten on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Griechische Landschildkröten if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Braunschweig will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Griechische Landschildkröten already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most animals on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Griechische Landschildkröten isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierheim Braunschweig early rather than rehoming privately; they know Griechische Landschildkröten and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
