Apparently, my tortoise (who we'd believed dead) was found crossing the street in MOSCOW, MAINE and has since been taken to a shelter/zoo. I need to find out where, so I may contact them and let them know I am the owner, and can give some history on the tortoise. Please help if you can, thank you!

how do you lose a tortoise?? not like they can run away rom you
A tortoise sat next to a man at the theater. The man asked, "Why are you here watching a movie?"
The tortoise replied, "I liked the book."
Umm, I guess the moral of the story is the OP is a one hit wonder unless he comes back and proves us wrong.
As tortoises are reptiles dont they hibernate over winter?
Tortoises are members of the Chelonian family, as are turtles and terrapins. They are reptiles and ectothermic (cold-blooded). When the temperature drops their body functions slow down. Most tortoises are native to warm areas, but even the Russian Tortoise will look to hibernate when the temperature drops into the 40s. A tortoise will become non-functional in sub-freezing temperatures, they need to be in an insulated den to survive.
