Clarence the Galapagos Tortoise

This is no ghost! Clarence is 100 years old and loves shellebrating Halloween with Friends young & old! See Clarence walk about or maybe catch him snoozing in the sun (one of his favorite activities). Best to see this big, 550 pound guy before 3pm. He usually tucks himself in bed before it gets too late.

Ira's Kingdom
