Robert Irwin Shares Photo Of His Self-Isolation Buddy, A Tortoise Named Igloo

While so many people are going through some grim days, self-isolating and staying at home to avoid getting infected with the novel coronavirus and lower the curve, we can all probably agree that it’s really important to have an isolation buddy to keep ourselves sane. For some, it can be a parent, a loved one or a friend on the other end of the line, for some, it’s a beloved pet. And for some lucky ones, it’s a whole zoo.



Robert and his wrinkly pal knew exactly how to cheer people up during these stressful times. Shortly after posting the fantastic selfie, Robert's mother, Terri Irwin, reposted the picture alongside a humorous as well as informative caption. Apparently, people can "adopt" animals like this beautiful tortoise if they want to support the zoo.
