I think the photo was rather 'staged' by the photographer.

Guys.. this lady is well respected in Tortoise care, and knows her stuff. The tortoises are/were wrapped in towels, and the stuff in there was just a prop to make the pic more interesting to non tortoise keepers.

I am sure by the interviews end, perhaps during it, they were wrapped up and put back, and the props taken out again.

Anyway.. I keep dead mice in the freezer...
