Desert Tortoise (Gopherus agassizii)


Captured from a WONDERFUL MULTIMEDIA CD-ROM title,
"Eyewitness Encyclopedia of Nature",
Dorling Kindersley Multimedia, 1995

THIS TORTOISE lives in the deserts of North America. It feeds on plants and, unlike other desert animals, is often active during the hottest part of the day. The desert tortoise has flattened front legs that it uses for digging long burrows. It usess these burrows as its winter quarters.
