‘Horrifying’ video captures vegetarian tortoise eating baby bird for
first time
A Seychelles giant tortoise apparently defied its historically
plant-based diet when it was spotted snacking on a baby bird — a
“horrifying” moment, scientists said.
Ecological researchers at the University of Cambridge’s Museum of
Zoology caught the disturbing incident on video, which occurred in July
2020 on Frégate Island in the Indian Ocean.
“This is completely unexpected behavior and has never been seen before
in wild tortoises,” said lead researcher Justin Gerlach, director of
studies at Peterhouse Cambridge college, in a statement on Monday,
according to CNN.
“The giant tortoise pursued the tern chick along a log, finally killing
the chick and eating it,” recalled Gerlach, whose recent work was
published in the journal Current Biology. “It was a very slow encounter,
with the tortoise moving at its normal, slow walking pace — the whole
interaction took seven minutes and was quite horrifying.”
Frégate Island conservation manager and study co-author Anna Zora said
that she was alerted to keep her camera’s lens pointed towards the
tortoise when she “saw [it] moving in a strange way.”
The slow-moving reptile was stalking its prey — a tern chick — Zora
realized.
“It’s moving very deliberately — it’s not just wandering about, it’s
looking at this tern, and it’s walking straight at it, clearly intending
to do something. That suggests to me that it’s doing it with intent. It
knows what it’s doing, it’s done this before,” said Gerlach, who added
that the tortoise looked “experienced” at hunting.
"This is completely unexpected behavior and has never been seen before
in wild tortoises," said lead researcher Justin Gerlach of the animal's
quest for food.
