A tortoise wearing socks was recently spotted crossing the road. Its owner said she usually takes her tortoise out for three or four-hour walks, so she puts socks on its feet to protect them. People often take photos of this cute tortoise in socks while it’s out and about.
While stopped at a light, a driver noticed a woman crossing the road with a tortoise. But that’s not all. The tortoise was wearing socks. The woman picks it up and puts on a cart, quickly pushing it across the intersection. The driver said it was the first time they had to stop for a tortoise.

This is the same tortoise who wore socks to cross the road. Now eight years old, Sukada often goes for afternoon walks on the street.
This curious tortoise makes its way down the street, moving one foot at a time wherever it pleases. Its owner sometimes follows from behind, and other times guides it in a certain direction. But Sukada has its own ideas, and won’t always go where you tell it.
Owner
Takes Sukada for walks
It has its own ideas about where it wants to go. It will even cry if the walk is too short or it feels wronged.
The owner takes her tortoise on three or four-hour-long walks. Because its feet got injured before, she always puts socks on its feet when they go out.
The owner also has a cart on hand. If the tortoise is too slow to cross the road, she will put it on the cart and push it across. If it’s tired, it will just stay on the cart and refuse to get off.
Four years ago, Sukada was only 4kg. But thanks to the care of its loving owner, it’s now 40kg. They’re not only a dear pet, but a minor local celebrity.
