A Galapagos tortoise who is around 100 years old has moved home from San Diego Zoo to Toledo Zoo in Ohio. Emerson, a male tortoise, arrived at Toledo Zoo late on Wednesday August 27. It took several handlers and a specialized crate to make him comfortable during the ride. Emerson can expect to spend the foreseeable future on display at the Zoo, where he will wow the residents of Ohio with his boundless energy. The San Diego Zoo's conservation and science work takes place locally at the zoo as well as at international field programs on six continents. Report by Claire Mewse.
