Attacking gopher tortoise!!! (not really)
Well, it sure seemed that way the other day when Connie and I came home to find one in the driveway. When I got out of the truck to take pictures and video, he (she?) just started marching in my direction like he meant business.

Nice sized specimen, Rich. Great video! I happen to like tortoises, and always wonder how old they are when I see one. Are there any downsides to having them live on your property, outside of the holes for their burrows?

Both Connie and I wouldn't mind at all if we had dozens of them around here. They are interesting critters, and about as harmless as an animal can get. Our biggest fear is that some people will actually catch and eat them. I sure wouldn't want to be THAT person if Connie caught them red handed. :dead: |
