A 20-year-old tortoise found in a local shelter has been adopted by pop star Miley Cyrus.
Miley Cyrus has welcomed a new member to her family. The "Hannah Montana" star recently adopted a 20-year-old tortoise! Teru, an African spurred tortoise, recently found his forever home after being connected with Cyrus through Wags and Walks, a rescue group based in West Los Angeles.
The organization said it learned the singer was looking to adopt a tortoise and helped coordinate the match.
"When we heard that @mileycyrus was hoping to adopt a tortoise, we knew we had to help make the connection happen,"Teru had been staying at a local shelter before the rescue intervened to facilitate the adoption. "As unexpected as this rescue was, it's also a reminder of the reality shelters are facing right now. Animals of all kinds are ending up in overcrowded systems, and more pets than ever are in need of safe places to go," read the post.
