Two exotic baby tortoises are back home after a theft from an area pet shop — all caught on camera.

It was a heist police say they haven't seen before: a woman went into "Everything Pets" in Rotterdam, asked to see reptiles, and then stashed two baby tortoises in her purse.

Police have charged Dana Ward with petit larceny and endangering the welfare of a child.

The expensive baby reptiles can grow to weigh up to 200 pounds, and they require special care.          

Everything Pets tells Spectrum News each tortoise is worth $300.
