Hi I lost my Russian tortoise many times and found her every time but what helped me is I know the places where she likes to sun bath and that is where I always find her. Hope this helped!

Hi there,not sure about their instints. Our tortoise was hiding at the base of the tree in our backyard. They are very deceiving because how much they camouflage themselves with their shell. We looked in the same areas at least a dozen times and finally found her. Good Luck!
