It looks very similar to some of the pictures of greek tortoises on austinsturtlepage.com

I'm not an expert at identifying species though.

Do you have any pictures of the belly of your turtle?

When I search the scientific name that you gave me, I get results back for the Greek Tortoise. I didn't mean to offend you by saying that you had a Greek Tortoise, I was just commenting that it is what it looked like. Now I'm really confused, because of the scientific name that you gave me.

Sorry about the confusion! I wasn't questioning where it was born, I was curious about the species. He's adorable, I just wondered what kind he was.
