Answer 2

Russian tortoises are herbivores that graze on a variety of weeds, including leaves, flowers, and stalks.  Their natural diet is high in fiber, high in calcium, and low in protein.  The protein they do eat is all from plants; none is from animal sources.  A Russian’s natural diet also does not include fruit, which contains high amounts of sugar that can cause bloating and parasite blooms.
