Tent tortoise
The tent tortoise (''Psammobates tentorius'') is a species of tortoise and one of three members of the genus, ''Psammobates''.〔(Zip Code Zoo ) (Retrieved 28 February 2010)〕 Known locally as the Karoo tent tortoise, this highly variable species is found in the Karoo and semi-desert regions of Southern Africa.
==Distribution==
The Karoo tent tortoise occurs at very low densities throughout the Karoo and other semi-desert areas of southern Africa, extending from central Namibia almost to the southern coast of South Africa.
Within this range, its population is very sparse and individuals are normally rare and widely separated. The species is also increasingly rare due to habitat destruction and illegal collecting for the pet trade. Due to its specific diet of certain Karoo plants, this species rarely survives in captivity and usually soon dies when taken outside of its natural habitat.
