the irony is, there is a legit website for this:

Q: Can I put my reptile on a leash and go for walks with it ?
Some lizards can be trained to walk on a leash. I have
heard of iguanas and Savannah Monitors being able to do this.
You would use a cat or rabbit harness for the purpose.
Turtles and tortoises should never have their shells
perforated in order to tie them to a leash ! Not only do
they not understand the concept of a leash, the damaged
shell can get infected. Also, the shell is live bone, and
the procedure is not pleasant for the turtle, to say the least.
