US EditionTortoise Found a Year After Escaping in Search of Mate
- A tortoise named Ginger escaped from Sarah-Jane Muirie's home near Bredon, Worcestershire, in June 2024 and was found 11 months later behind the Mount Inn pub in Stanton, Gloucestershire.
- Ginger fled after her longtime companion Fred died and dug under a garden fence to slowly cross countryside fields in search of a mate, according to a vet friend.
- Sarah-Jane, 51, who has had Ginger since she was 10, put up missing posters but nearly lost hope before a horse rider spotted Ginger last week just a mile from home.
- Ginger travelled at an average speed of 0.00012 mph, survived hibernation during cold months, and Sarah-Jane said it "means a lot" to have cared for her pet for 40 years.
- Sarah-Jane was delighted by Ginger’s return, describing it as a revival of a cherished part of her childhood, and the tortoise now enjoys spending time soaking up the sun near her home.
