Betsy B · Ambassador Gopher Tortoise

Betsy B loves digging burrows in her habitat and munching on hibiscus flowers!

Adopt her today and you’ll be directly supporting Betsy B’s and our other turtles’ food and veterinary care.

Betsy B was named by our friends at the Vera Kunsak Charitable Trust, who have been generously supporting our mission for thirteen years. Betsy B served as the first Trustee of the Vera Kunsak Charitable Trust and is survived by her brother, Doug Bischoff.
