Mr. Horvith, please enlighten me with your vast knowledge. Do the locals south of the border call them Texas tortoises or something else? Let me know when your book on the subject comes out... Time to move to the thread with the black eyed map turtles, you surely can have a field day with that, or is that not your expertise?

Perhaps, but you're also a moron. And yeah, I'll say that to your face with my finger on your chest. You don't know me son.
Autocorrected to marginatus? That's quite a linguistically savvy autocorrect you have there. It even speaks Latin...

It's absolute truth in advertising in every sense. If he had simply stated Texas tortoise, some moron, perhaps even yourself, would have come along and argued that it couldn't possibly be a Texas tortoise if it's from Mexico. This is the fundamental reason why scientific names exist. They are intended to eliminate the ambiguity that is inherent to common names. Sorry if some of those words are too big for you, but don't worry, Google can be your friend.

I will remind everyone this is the classified section not the discussion groups or the BOI. If you must continue take it to the appropriate forum.

Mr Ahrens,
Given that one member has been banned, and that other infractions have been issued, was further disrupting this ad really a good idea?

Common names do not apply, but as descriptive terms usually.
Its a tortoise, Mexican tortoise, texas tortoise, gopher tortoise, Mexican gopher tortoise, texas gopher tortoise, texas desert tortoise, tortuga, tortuga mexicana, etc etc.....in the end its a descriptive term of the locale of the animal. Mexican locale Texas Tortoise is too much typing, lol.
