During a game last August, Brewers manager Pat Murphy was caught taking a pancake from the pocket of his hoodie for a midgame bite, right in the middle of a dugout interview.

@leothehomelesstort In all seriousnessthankful beyond words for attentive neighbors who helped put out the fire. Leo is safe The heat lamp fell and ignited the substrate. Posting this as a warning to other tortoise owners: secure your heat lamps. This could've ended very differently. Also, open to any advice on how to build her house safer. #turbo #tortoisesoftiktok #fire Welp, Didn't Expect That Yu-Peng Chen & HOYO-MiX

I am in the kitchen watching the dog and the cat fight when the tortoise suddenly appears. Or to put it another way: I watched the dog and the cat fight for a while, until it became tiresome; the next time I looked up possibly 15 minutes later the tortoise was also there. That's what I mean by suddenly. In real terms, the tortoise doesn't do anything suddenly.

Londoners are used to sharing their Tube rides with dogs and maybe the occasional cat but passengers on the Victoria Line last week got quite the surprise when a tiny traveller joined their carriage. Video footage taken by one astonished passenger shows a tortoise calmly perched on one of the Priority Seats just after rush hour on Friday, November 7. Cha, who filmed the scene, said she had just arrived at Seven Sisters when she spotted the little creature, reportedly en route to the vet after injuring its tail.

The tortoise always gives the impression of preferring to be left alone with his humiliation. It's easy to think of him as self-regulating, but he's both vulnerable and wily.
