My tortoise was hit by a car and can't move. What should I do now?

Question

A tortoise came under my car while I was just started to move it's not able to move since then, can you help please

The tortoise will need to be examined by a veterinarian experienced in treating reptiles. If the injuries are severe or if the tortoise is truly paralyzed, humane euthanasia may be an option. Without an exam, it is difficult to determine the extent of the injuries or what treatment is needed.
