This is the cutest thing I’ve seen today. I expect more of Lincoln going forward

It's fine, he has another up to 150 years to do the growing.

Do turtles and tortoises' brain grow bigger or does it stay this little?

Anyway, this tiny dude looks awesome.

I thought he was on spiderwebs because of the scale scratch marks.
