GALAPAGOS TORTOISE

In Victorian times, it was very posh to sport a Galapagos Tortoise in one’s garden. These beautiful creatures were rounded up in large numbers and were kept as fresh meat for seafaring sailors. Some made it back to the mother country and became a symbol of status grazing the gardens of the “bourgeoisie”.

Now as a sad tribute to these creatures who wandered the gardens of Europe, Natureworks has produced a timeless tribute to our vanishing Aldabra Tortoises from the Galapagos Islands. It is an ideal child-friendly item not easily vandalised or damaged, and looks REAL!

It has also been popular with child care centres and council parks. It can be made extra heavy duty, for occasions when an extra strong piece is required. It is 154 cm long by 93 cm wide, by 70cm high and weighs 33kgs. 

Natureworks can custom build to your requirements, or you could choose from their existing 800 stock items, which are available to create a special feature in your space. You dream it we can create it!
