Custos Testudinum (Tortoise Keeper)

Hi! I’m Anna, as a materials scientist I often study the toughness of materials and I can say that tortoise shells are indeed tough. This helps preserve the tenderness of their meat which makes one of my favourite dishes. Email me at anna.wu@ccc.ox.ac.uk if you have any questions about Foxe our tortoise or the tortoise fair! Hope to see you all there!
