Animal Spotlight: Tortoise 
 Tortoise or turtle - how can you tell the
          difference? It's pretty simple: tortoises are land-dwelling reptiles,
          while turtles spend most of their time in the water. 
 
          Ghost Rider, pictured to the left, is Mystic Aquarium's resident
          tortoise. His diet consists of hearty salads filled with a variety of
          fruits and vegetables.  
           
          While generally a shy creature, you can meet and learn more about
          Ghost Rider or one of our resident turtles at Tea with Turtles
          during Toddler
          Tuesdays on Nov.
          22. Learn

This holiday season, consider giving the gift of a
          donation. By making a donation in a friend or family member's name to
          your favorite non-profit, like Mystic Aquarium, you'll save time and
          gas for your car all while supporting a great cause. Many
          organizations even include a small keepsake to share with the
          recipient.
