Aldabra Giant Tortoise

Scientific Name: Aldabrachelys gigantea

Common Names: Aldabra Tortoise, Aldabra Giant Tortoise

Overview
The Aldabra Giant Tortoise (Aldabrachelys gigantea) is one of the largest and most iconic tortoises in the world. Native to the Aldabra Atoll in the Indian Ocean, part of the Seychelles, these majestic creatures can live for over a century and are known for their massive size and slow, deliberate movements. They have a domed, dark shell and can weigh up to 550 pounds (250 kg) when fully grown. These tortoises are herbivores and play an essential role in the ecosystem by grazing on vegetation and helping to maintain the balance of their environment. They are currently classified as Vulnerable due to habitat loss, poaching, and climate change.

Care Notes
Activity Level: Slow-moving and deliberate. Aldabra Giant Tortoises are not particularly active, but they require large areas to roam and graze.
Health: These tortoises need access to sunlight for natural vitamin D synthesis and must have a proper diet to avoid shell deformities and obesity.
Social Nature: Generally solitary, but they can tolerate being housed with other tortoises of the same species. Aggression is rare but can occur in overcrowded conditions.
Breeding: Aldabra Giant Tortoises lay eggs, and females can lay multiple clutches per year. Egg incubation requires careful monitoring of temperature and humidity.

Conservation Status
Conservation Status: Vulnerable (IUCN Red List)
Threats: Habitat destruction and climate change
Conservation Efforts: Conservation programs are in place to protect the species, particularly on the Aldabra Atoll, where they have a protected, natural habitat. Breeding programs are also conducted in zoos and wildlife reserves to help maintain the population.

Fun Fact
The Aldabra Giant Tortoise is not only one of the largest tortoises but also one of the longest-living creatures on Earth. Some individuals in captivity have been known to live more than 150 years, making them a symbol of longevity and resilience. Their slow and steady lifestyle is a unique feature of this remarkable species!

I’m a little disappointed.
Format: Kindle
I usually like Jillian West’s books but this one was missing a lot for me. The pregnancy didn’t come across as real. She’s on her feet for 12 hour days but is perfectly healthy at 8 months pregnant? Yet the week she moves in all of a sudden she’s not? She is planning on actually running during one of the plot buildups. But at 8 months pregnant that’s incredibly hard to do. The lack of breathing ability and lung space, the change in body center, mass, and gravity. All of it prohibits running, unless you’re an athlete this didn’t come off as at all realistic. I didn’t feel any connection with the alphas. There wasn’t any emotional connection. It could be because of the tense it was written in. But I didn’t get any deep feelings out of this. It came across as checking off boxes. Even the spicy scenes weren’t really believable for me. I wanted to see them fall for her, and it just kind of all fizzled. Even Bishop. One thing I did really like was the ending. I did not see it coming and I’m interested in reading book two because of it. But on the whole this book was mostly disappointing for me.

Vale is an 8 month pregnant omega working as a waitress at a strip club and a cam girl. She starts to get very creepy vibes from a regular at the club, and her baby daddy ghosted her. She has had an online relationship with a man named Bishop through her cam girl status. One night, bishop was paying to watch her sleep and ansthe creepy regular Andrew break in and watch her sleep he tells vale to come to him at his business now. She flees and finds herself at a large security company with some.hot of alphas who are there to help her. This imegaverse is a little different than I have read, but I am thoroughly enjoying it. Vale is not a traditional omega she was raised by a single beta mom, and the alphas are not normal alphas they have never really loved pack life. But they are ruthless mercenaries. They need her, and she needs them. I love the aspect of the stalker and now the plot twists at the end, so so good. Sometimes, it seemed a little slow and stale mated, but since this a duet, I think It was just her starting to have Vale get to know her alpha suitors. Cliffhanger for sure with this one.

That ending 😫
Format: Kindle
I fell into a false sense of security and really thought this was gearing towards a happy ending. Then I realized there’s no work they don’t punish Andrew. I really liked Vale’s character. I don’t normally read books with pregnancy but going into this knowing she was pregnant made it more enjoyable for me. I loved Bishops devotion to her and her happiness. I also loved that Holt and Mercy couldn’t fight their attraction to her. I love scent matches so very much. I’m so curious to see how this duet will end up. And I need to pay more attention and notice that a book I’m starting is a duet to begin with lol

I just knew there was something about Cooper! I’m wondering if he’s about to be included but damn I’m glad he’s at least not a rapist and creepy guy, he just got called on assignment and had to go! This should be interesting! She’s gonna run and then what’s his face is gonna grab her. I’m worried! Wow that was a great book and cliffhanger! Loving this!

Okay I’m usually not one for stand-alone’s I’m an avid series reader but my goodness am I so happy I read this! This story was brilliant & so absolutely mesmerizing. I loved reading about each character and their struggles as well as what helped them to move forward. The ending definitely brought tears to my eyes so hard. I truly wasn’t expecting some of what happened in this story. There is about to be a spoiler I am going to reveal so please stop reading if you don’t want the spoiler !!!! ⚠️ ⛔️ ‼️ I loved that the author didn’t do what most authors do with irredeemable male characters. I truly was hoping that Nate Jr. would be apart of the pack after the way he treated Astrea bc he truly didn’t deserve it. Though I must say you did a wonderful job or redeeming him as a person. I cried my eyes out when he walked into the story. I was truly terrified he was going to be a bad guy to the end. However you truly did him such a justice by having him realize his faults & having him redeem himself in the most wonderful way. I’m so sad that he didn’t get to hear how much his brother loved him & forgave him before dying. But again you wrote that ending so beautifully & I just can’t express how much I loved this story & how you took a different route than most authors I have read have. You are a remarkable author Cinder Blaze & I thank you generously for creating such a masterpiece.
