Will let you know how the biting trick works out.

“And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,
As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing…..” (Coleridge, Kubla Khan).

Tortoises can probably do the same trick that my turtle could do 45 years ago. Tease it with your finger until it bites you. You then can lift it up off the ground, and it won’t let go until you set it back down. Your finger eventually gets better. (Note: this trick doesn’t work with snapping turtles, partly because they’re too heavy, but mostly because they can take your finger right off).

Poor tortoise! Lucky she has you for her hero, to help her in her strawberry dismounts. Aww…
