While walking in the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens in Cape Town, South Africa, I had this Angulate Tortoise come charging at me from 50 Meters away. To my surprise it started to charge my foot. Some people have said it looks like I kicked it when it eventually bit me, but I can assure you that's not the case. When it bit me I pulled my foot away and the Tortoise was still attached to my shoe. No Tortoises were harmed in the making of this video.
