## Resource

A beloved tortoise named Howard, a local fixture at Colorado Springs’ Scales ‘N Tales since 2011, was snatched from his outdoor pen Wednesday night around 6:40 PM. Known as a community favorite, Howard wasn’t for sale—he was family. The owners posted suspect photos (pending police confirmation) and are urgently asking locals, especially reptile enthusiasts, to help track him down. If you saw anything or have info, contact Scales ‘N Tales or the Colorado Springs Police. Let’s get Howard home safe. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
