Does anyone in Canada keep Indian Star or Egyptian Tortoises?

One of my friends has a juvenile star, and I've had them offered to me, as for egyptians-I've been looking for them for so long without any luck, even when I've looked for them in the U.S, I've only seen a few and they were very expensive. They are around, but prepare to pay a lot for them. I'm trying to collect all species of testudo and egyptians are the only species outstanding.

Yes, I am aware of the cost for the Egyptians. Let's keep in touch, maybe one of us will locate a source. Thanks.

There are Star torts occasionally. But Egyptians are tough to find, even in the US. Love to see an Egyptian Tort.

Cheers,

I know a guy who had an egyption tort in canada. it is not deceased but he said he thhought there were only 4 legally obtained egyptions in canada and his was one of them (that's his stats... i don't know anything about it). I think finding one in canada is slim to nill
