Dog owners know the importance of taking their pups on regular walks.
These days, it’s not even uncommon to see some people bringing their cats out on a stroll.
However, it’s not every day that you come across a tortoise ambling down the street.

Mitani explains that when he first got Bon-chan, the reptile was just the size of his palm.
However, over time, the tortoise became bigger than he anticipated.
When Bon-chan was 10 years old, he went through a huge growth spurt.
Now, Mitani estimates that he weighs about 155 pounds.
We walk the neighborhood and we are pretty famous around here.
I give a shot to take him out whenever I have the time, Mitani adds.
I think it helps to relieve his stress from being cooped up.
