We have a number of gopher tortoises living on the property here. This one was passing by where I was watering late this afternoon. I always smile when I see one going about their business. In Florida they are listed as threatened & they as well as their burrow are protected under state law. The only time they have presented a problem for us is when the hubs is mowing & can't see the hole & OOPS! the mower gets stuck.
