Radio-controlled tortoise
A woman operates a remote control device for Toddle the tortoise. The aerial picks up a signal and makes the arm holding the lettuce (and Toddle!) swing left or right. The inventor, Richard Paul, says that there is no cruelty involved, as the receiver is very light in weight and is just strapped onto the tortoises shell. Date: 1960s
